Fix allocation of non-transient strings in StringStore (#13713)

* Fix bug in memory-zone code when adding non-transient strings. The error could result in segmentation faults or other memory errors during memory zones if new labels were added to the model.
* Fix handling of new morphological labels within memory zones. Addresses second issue reported in Memory leak of MorphAnalysis object. #13684
