[PATCH v2 04/11] clean: do not use strbuf_split*() [part 2]

From
Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Message-ID
<20250731225433.4028872-5-gitster@pobox.com>
In-Reply-To

builtin/clean.c:filter_by_patterns_cmd() interactively reads a line that has exclude patterns from the user and splits the line into a list of patterns. It uses the strbuf_split() so that each split piece can then trimmed.

There is no need to use strbuf anymore, thanks to the recent enhancement to string_list_split*() family that allows us to trim the pieces split into a string_list.
