[PATCH 3/4] remote: fix leak in branch_get_push_1() with invalid "simple" config

[Jeff King <peff@peff.net>]

Most of the code paths in branch_get_push_1() allocate a string for the
@{push} value. We then return the result, which is stored in a "struct
branch", so the value is not leaked.

But there's one path that does leak: when we are in the "simple" push
mode, we have to check that the @{push} value matches what we'd get for
@{upstream}. If it doesn't, we return an error, but forget to free the
@{push} value we computed.

Curiously, the existing tests don't trigger this with LSan, even though
they do exercise the code path. As far as I can tell, it should be
triggered via:

  git -c push.default=simple \
      -c branch.foo.remote=origin \
      -c branch.foo.merge=refs/heads/not-foo \
      rev-parse foo@{push}

which will complain that the upstream ("not-foo") does not match the
push destination ("foo"). We do die() shortly after this, but not until
after returning from branch_get_push_1(), which is where the leak
happens.

So it seems like a false negative in LSan. However, I can trigger it
reliably by printing the @{push} value using for-each-ref. This takes a
little more setup (because we need "foo" to actually exist to iterate
over it with for-each-ref), but we can piggy-back on the existing repo
config in t6300.
