In [1] we started saving away the earlier xstrdup()'d
"options.onto_name" assignment to free() it, but when [2] added this
"keep_base" branch it didn't free() the already assigned
"squash_onto_name" before re-assigning to "options.onto_name". Let's
do that, and fix the memory leak.
I'm afraid I don't really follow the reasoning here. "squash_onto_name"
is only used if --root is given and that option is incompatible with
--keep-base so the --keep-base branch has no business touching it.
Having said that I think you've stumbled upon a viable solution if you
drop the unneeded free() added below and rename "squash_onto_name" to
something like "onto_name_to_free".
