Hi,

This series replaces oidmap_clear(map, 1) with oidmap_clear_with_free() and introduces explicit free callbacks at the remaining call sites.

The old boolean-based API implicitly assumed plain free(), which obscures ownership semantics and does not work well when oidmap_entry is embedded inside larger structures. The callback-based API makes cleanup explicit and type-safe, and avoids relying on hidden assumptions about allocation.

This is used in subsequent commits to adequately cleanup all usage site.

Changes in v2:
 - fix missing .path cleanup
 - modified commit message to be more accurate

Thanks Seyi
