LogContentView does keep all messageView for each console messages in _consoleMessageViews. It keeps the obsolete views after new session is started. This is memory leak. Steps To Reproduce: 1. Open Web Inspector. Log something using console.log. 2. Reload the page. Console log view should has been cleared. 3. Open Web Inspector for Web Inspector.

Type `WI.consoleContentView._logViewController._consoleMessageViews` in the console message. Results: You will see many entries with non attached messageViews. Regression: It should be cleared when new session is created. This bug was introduced at 258675@main.
