In some instances, match_refs() sets the peer_ref field of refs in the dst list such that it points to a ref in the src list. This prevents callers from freeing both the src and dst lists, as doing so would cause a double-free since free_refs() frees the peer_ref.
As well, the following configuration causes two refs in the dst list to have the same peer_ref, which can also lead to a double-free:
push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/backup push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master
Existing callers of match_heads() call it only once and then terminate, w/o ever bothering to free the src or dst lists, so this is not currently a problem.
This patch modifies match_refs() to first copy any refs it plucks from the src list before assigning them as a peer_ref. This allows builtin-remote, a future caller, to free the src and dst lists.
