Add purgeObj() to remove the symbol table entries for an object
This allows us to replace an object without actually unloading the old
object, which is necessary when we know we have references to the old
object so it can't be completely unloaded. Using unloadObj() would
cause the GC (CheckUnload) to repeatedly and fruitlessly try to unload
the old object.
