  Valgrind reported a memory leak on exit with internal functions.

To fix this, I added a new case to clear_internalvar, and then
arranged to call clear_internalvar when an internalvar is deleted.
Also, because an internalvar can reference a value, it seemed prudent
to clear 'internalvars' from the final cleanup in value.c.

Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.  I also did a bit of testing by
hand with valgrind and ASAN.

This struct should probably be made non-movable/assignable/copyable/etc
(or the appropriate ones should be implemented, if they are needed).
