GPU VRAM get freed perfectly. System RAM gets cleared to an extent, it doesn't keep growing which is the most important thing. There must be a lingering reference because we create data array in jupyter, and this is the data that we feed to |

This implements:
WORLD_OBJECTSdict infastplotlib.graphics._baseused internally byfastplotlibto keep track of all pygfxWorldObjectinstances in a session.Graphicinstances only use a weak reference proxy to access theirWorldObjectusing their hex id. All references to world objects outside of this dict are via proxies.GRAPHICSdict infastplotlib.layouts._baseto keep track of allGraphicobjects, functions similar to the global world objects dict. All references to Graphic objects outside of this dict are via proxies. The variousplot.add_<graphic>methods only return proxies.Adds a
PlotArea.delete_graphic()method which is the only way that aGraphicshould be deleted. This also frees up GPU VRAM.GPU VRAM freed and tested for:
