perf namespaces: Add reference count checking
Add reference count checking controlled by REFCNT_CHECKING ifdef. The
reference count checking interposes an allocated pointer between the
reference counted struct on a get and frees the pointer on a put.
Accesses after a put cause faults and use after free, missed puts are
caughts as leaks and double puts are double frees.
This checking helped resolve a memory leak and use after free:
