bind: pin Go objects while incrementing their reference count

When passing a refnum across the language barrier there is a small
window where a proxy object itself can be garbage collected, its
reference count go to 0 and the object be gone when the refnum
is dereferenced on the other side.

In Go the proxy object is pinned with runtime.KeepAlive. This CL
implements the same mechanism in Java by passing the proxy object to
native code, ensuring the Java GC can't reclaim it during the call.
