revisions API: have release_revisions() release "mailmap"

Extend the the release_revisions() function so that it frees the
"mailmap" in the "struct rev_info".

The log family of functions now calls the clear_mailmap() function
added in fa8afd18e5a (revisions API: provide and use a
release_revisions(), 2021-09-19), allowing us to whitelist some tests
with "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".

Unfortunately having a pointer to a mailmap in "struct rev_info"
instead of an embedded member that we "own" get a bit messy, as can be
seen in the change to builtin/commit.c.

When we free() this data we won't be able to tell apart a pointer to a
"mailmap" on the heap from one on the stack. As seen in
ea57bc0d41 (log: add --use-mailmap option, 2013-01-05) the "log"
family allocates it on the heap, but in the find_author_by_nickname()
code added in ea16794e43 (commit: search author pattern against
mailmap, 2013-08-23) we allocated it on the stack instead.

Ideally we'd simply change that member to a "struct string_list
mailmap" and never free() the "mailmap" itself, but that would be a
much larger change to the revisions API.

We have code that needs to hand an existing "mailmap" to a "struct
rev_info", while we could change all of that, let's not go there
now.

The complexity isn't in the ownership of the "mailmap" per-se, but
that various things assume a "rev_info.mailmap == NULL" means "doesn't
want mailmap", if we changed that to an init'd "struct string_list
we'd need to carefully refactor things to change those assumptions.

Let's instead always free() it, and simply declare that if you add
such a "mailmap" it must be allocated on the heap. Any modern libc
will correctly panic if we free() a stack variable, so this should be
safe going forward.
