This series fixes various widespread leaks in the sequencer and its users (rebase, revert, cherry-pick). As a result 18 tests become leak-free in their entirety. See the v1 for a longer general summary: https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-00.10-00000000000-20221230T071741Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ Changes since v2: * Reword/amend commit messages for some of the functional changes in v1..v2. * Remove leftover "opts->xopts_nr = 0" now that we don't FREE_AND_NULL() anymore. * Drop the "squash_onto_name" refactoring to a "to_free" * Instead add a new "keep_base_onto_name" in the next commit. I'd missed that if both options were provided we'd die(), so that free() wasn't needed before re-assignment, as Phillip pointed out...
