The `struct rebase_options::strategy` field is a `char *`, but we do end
up assigning string constants to it in two cases:
- When being passed a `--strategy=` option via the command line.
- When being passed a strategy option via `--strategy-option=`, but
not a strategy.
This will cause warnings once we enable `-Wwrite-strings`.
Ideally, we'd just convert the field to be a `const char *`. But we also
assign to this field via the GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM envvar, which we
have to strdup(3P) into it.
Instead, refactor the code to make sure that we only ever assign
allocated strings to this field.
