Since opt->priv->pool always points at internal_pool now, I think we can
simplify much more. Every "if (!opt->priv->pool)" can go away, and in
turn paths_to_free does, too. Those are really the spots I was most
worried about in terms of complexity.

An easy way to find these spots is to get rid of internal_pool, and just
make "pool" the struct. Then the compiler helpfully complains about all
of the places that check the boolean value of a struct. :)

The patch below is from a fairly mechanical conversion I did. All of the
spots were found by the compiler, except the one in use_cached_pairs (it
assigns to a local "pool" pointer, which is always non-NULL, but that's
not necessarily obvious to the compiler).

You might spot further opportunities for cleanup, as somebody who's more
familiar with the allocation patterns (I happened to notice manually
that paths_to_free is not needed anymore, but I don't know if there are
any other subtle bits).
