Ensure chunks released on cancel in StringDecoder

The current test were not catching the issue because they request 1
via StepVerifier, wait for it, and then cancel. In the case of
StringDecoder it means all chunks are used up to produce that first
String and so the cancel doesn't catch any cached chunks.

Closes gh-30299
