[PULL 5/6] qom: Plug memory leak in "info qom-tree"

[Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>]

From: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>

Commit e8c9e65816 "qom: Make "info qom-tree" show children sorted"
created a memory leak, because I didn't realize
object_get_canonical_path_component()'s value needs to be freed.

Reproducer:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -S -monitor stdio
    QEMU 5.0.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
    (qemu) info qom-tree

This leaks some 4500 path components, 12-13 characters on average,
i.e. roughly 100kBytes depending on the allocator.  A couple of
hundred "info qom-tree" here, a couple of hundred there, and soon
enough we're talking about real memory.

Plug the leak.
