[PATCH] clear_pattern_list(): clear embedded hashmaps

Commit 96cc8ab531 (sparse-checkout: use hashmaps for cone patterns, 2019-11-21) added some auxiliary hashmaps to the pattern_list struct, but they're leaked when clear_pattern_list() is called.

I have no idea how often this leak triggers in practice. I just noticed
it while poking at LSan output (which we remain depressingly far
from getting a clean run on).
