ignore: fix reference cycle for compiled matchers

It looks like there is a reference cycle caused by the compiled
matchers (compiled HashMap holds ref to Ignore and Ignore holds ref
to HashMap). Using weak refs fixes issue #2690 in my test project.
Also confirmed via before and after when profiling the code, see the
attached screenshots in #2692.
