[PATCH v5 07/29] trailer: mirror interpret-trailers output flow

From
Li Chen <me@linux.beauty>
Date

Message-ID
<20251022053951.602605-8-me@linux.beauty>
In-Reply-To
<20251022053951.602605-1-me@linux.beauty>

Drop the early-return branch that mirrored the special case. Let trailer_process() always follow the same path as interpret-trailers. Ensure trailer lists and buffers are freed along the unified exit path.
