<pull.1307.git.1659084748350.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

In 9fefce68dc8 (merge-ort: basic outline for merge_switch_to_result(), 2020-12-13), we added functionality to lay down the result of a merge on disk. But we forgot to release the data structures in case `unpack_trees()` failed to run properly.

This was pointed out by the `linux-leaks` job in our CI runs.
