Subject: [PATCH] Store a copy of each serialized shared_ptr within the archive
 to prevent the shared_ptr to be freed to early. (#667)

The archives use the memory address pointed by the shared_ptr as a
unique id which must not be reused during lifetime of the archive.
Therefore, the archives stores a copy of it.
This problem was also reported as CVE-2020-11105.
