Part of #1081.

This PR fixes an issue where String::wrap() would un-necessarily call Rcpp_PreserveObject(), thereby 'leaking' the SEXP returned to R (basically, not allowing the R GC to ever collect that object).

Unfortunately it doesn't fix #1081 but I do think it's at least part of the issue.

Checklist

  • Code compiles correctly
  • R CMD check still passes all tests
  • Preferably, new tests were added which fail without the change
  • Document the changes by file in ChangeLog
