[PATCH v2 2/3] Fix memory leak in apply_patch in apply.c.

[Jared Hance <jaredhance@gmail.com>]

In the while loop inside apply_patch, patch is dynamically allocated
with a calloc. However, only unused patches are actually free'd; the
rest are left in a memory leak. Since a list is actively built up
consisting of the used patches, they can simply be iterated and free'd
at the end of the function.

In addition, the list of fragments should be free'd. To fix this, the
utility function free_patch has been implemented. It loops over the
entire patch list, and in each patch, loops over the fragment list,
freeing the fragments, followed by the patch in the list. It frees both
patch and patch->next.

The main caveat is that the text in a fragment, ie,
patch->fragments->patch, may or may not need to be free'd. The text is
dynamically allocated and needs to be freed iff the patch is a binary
patch, as allocation occurs in inflate_it.
