In "dir_struct", each exclusion element in the exclusion stack records a
base string (pointer to the beginning with length) so that we can tell
where it came from, but this pointer is just pointing at the parameter
that is given by the caller to the push_exclude_per_directory()
function.
While read_directory_recursive() runs, calls to excluded() makes use
the data in the exclusion elements, including this base string. The
caller of read_directory_recursive() is not supposed to free the
buffer it gave to push_exclude_per_directory() earlier, until it
returns.
The test case Bruce Stephens gave in the mailing list discussion
was simplified and added to the t3700 test.

It turns out that a minimally invasive fix was a lot simpler
than I thought.
This still does not fix the other codepaths in ls-files that does not
use read_directory() but walks the cache.
