Description
There are several compilation warnings of the following variety:
```
../src/GPUCommandEncoder.cpp:180:28: warning: object backing the pointer will be destroyed at the end of the full-expression [-Wdangling-gsl]
const char* groupLabel = info[0].As().Utf8Value().c_str();
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
```
I will be sending a pull request shortly.
