[PATCH] repo_logmsg_reencode: fix memory leak when use repo_logmsg_reencode()

["Lidong Yan via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Lidong Yan <502024330056@smail.nju.edu.cn>

pretty.c:repo_logmsg_reencode() allocated memory should be freed with
repo_unuse_commit_buffer(). Callers sometimes forgot free it at exit
point. Add `repo_unuse_commit_buffer()` in insert_records_from_trailers
at builtin/shortlog.c and create_commit at builtin/replay.c
