[PATCH 3/4] reftable: handle realloc error in parse_names()

From

Check the final reallocation for adding the terminating NULL and handle it just like those in the loop. Simply use REFTABLE_ALLOC_GROW instead of keeping the REFTABLE_REALLOC_ARRAY call and adding code to preserve the original pointer value around it.
