Hi Ævar

[continuing with v5 from where I left off with v4]

Use a release_revisions() with those "struct rev_list" users which
already "UNLEAK" the struct. It may seem odd to simultaneously attempt
to free() memory, but also to explicitly ignore whether we have memory
leaks in the same.

As explained in preceding commits this is being done to use the
built-in commands as a guinea pig for whether the release_revisions()
function works as expected, we'd like to test e.g. whether we segfault
as we change it. In subsequent commits we'll then remove these
UNLEAK() as the function is made to free the memory that caused us to
add them in the first place.

I'm a bit confused by this, the previous commit argued in favor of removing UNLEAK() so would could see the leaks and fix them, this is saying we should hide the leaks.

Best Wishes

Phillip
