[PATCH 21/22] merge-ort: fix two leaks when handling directory rename modifications

From

Message-ID
<da1c23a9ccf8c797ebcbe6ce5a8243c1d051fad6.1724656120.git.ps@pks.im>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1724656120.git.ps@pks.im>
There are two leaks in `apply_directory_rename_modifications()`:
  - We do not release the `dirs_to_insert` string list.
  - We do not release some `conflict_info` we put into the
    `opt->priv->paths` string map.

The former is trivial to fix. The latter is a bit less straight forward: the `util` pointer of the string map may sometimes point to data that has been allocated via `CALLOC()`, while at other times it may point to data that has been allocated via a `mem_pool`.

It very much seems like an oversight that we didn't also allocate the conflict info in this code path via the memory pool, though. So let's fix that, which will also plug the memory leak for us.
