[PATCH 07/10] reset: free allocated tree buffers

[Jeff King <peff@peff.net>]

We read the tree objects with fill_tree_descriptor(), but
never actually free the resulting buffers, causing a memory
leak. This isn't a huge deal because we call this code at
most twice per program invocation. But it does potentially
double our heap usage if you have large root trees. Let's
free the trees before returning.

Actually, in the two-call case we repeat one of the trees,
so we _could_ in theory stash it away. But we don't do that
currently, and it's probably not worth the effort. My main
motivation is just shutting up the leak checker so I can
find actual important leaks.
