worker: fix heap snapshot crash on exit
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Worker.parent_port_ can be released before the exit event of Worker. The
parent_port_ is not owned by `node::worker::Worker`, thus the reference
to it is not always valid, and accessing it at exit crashes the process.

As the Worker.parent_port_ is only used in the memory info tracking, it
can be safely removed.
