Summary
Fix the failing "TestClientSideEncryptionProse" test by duplicating the memory passed to the C side.
Background & Motivation
The original comment was not accurate. The C side mongocrypt_binary_new_from_data() does a shallow copy of the passed array only, while the Golang slice which holds the memory may be freed or moved by GC.
Once a GC happens, for example, between C.mongocrypt_binary_new_from_data() and C.mongocrypt_ctx_encrypt_init(), the memory block pointed by
C.mongocrypt_binary_t
gets corrupted and resulted in sporadic "invalid BSON".This PR proposes
C.CBytes()
to sync the lifecycle of the memory with the C code. Eventually, we can utilize runtime.Pinner (introduced in Go1.21.0) to avoid additional memory usage.
