[PATCH] apply: plug strbuf leak

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Depending on how read_patch_file() fails, it may already have read
many bytes into the supplied strbuf.  Either the caller or the callee
should release the strbuf.

Here we choose to make the sole caller of the function responsible
for releasing it, as it makes the error handling slightly simpler.
