RedisModule_StringRetain() allows, when automatic memory management is
on, to keep string objects living after the callback returns. Can also
be used in order to use Redis reference counting of objects inside
modules.
The reason why this is useful is that sometimes when implementing new
data types we want to reference RedisModuleString objects inside the
module private data structures, so those string objects must be valid
after the callback returns even if not referenced inside the Redis key
space.
