We're using the dispatch group itself to synchronize (to call `Release()` and `Acquire()` on it), but in dispatch group notifications, the group can already be disposed/deallocated.  This causes a later assertion failure at `DCHECK_EQ(*meta, 0);` in `MetaMap::AllocBlock` when the same memory is reused (note that the failure only happens in debug builds).

Fixing this by retaining the group and releasing it in the notification.  Adding a stress test case that reproduces this.
