dwim_ref() allocs a new string into ref. Instead of setting to NULL to
discard it, we can FREE_AND_NULL.
This leak appears to have been introduced in:
4cf76f6bbf (builtin/reset: compute checkout metadata for reset, 2020-03-16)
This leak was found when running t0001 with LSAN, see also LSAN output below:
Direct leak of 5 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
