Fix two memory leaks in "struct rev_info" by freeing that memory in cmd_format_patch(). These two are unusual special-cases in being in the "struct rev_info", but not being "owned" by the code in revision.c. I.e. they're members of the struct so that this code in "builtin/log.c" can pass information code in log-tree.c. See 20ff06805c6 (format-patch: resurrect extra headers from config, 2006-06-02) and d1566f7883f (git-format-patch: Make the second and subsequent mails replies to the first, 2006-07-14) for the initial introduction of "extra_headers" and "ref_message_ids". We can count on repo_init_revisions() memset()-ing this data to 0 however, so we can count on it being either NULL or something we allocated. In the case of "extra_headers" let's add a local "char *" variable to hold it, to avoid the eventual cast from "const char *" when we free() it. While we're at it let's also move to using string_list_init_nodup() instead of relying on calloc() implicitly coming up with the same result. See 770fedaf9fb (string-list.[ch]: add a string_list_init_{nodup,dup}(), 2021-07-01) for the introduction of the string_list_init_nodup() helper. The string_list_clear() here is redundant due to the *_nodup() initialization, but let's add it anyway for consistency with other API use.
