The struct strmap paths member of merge_options_internal is perhaps the
most central data structure to all of merge-ort. Because all the paths
involved in the merge need to be kept until the merge is complete, this
"paths" data structure traditionally took responsibility for owning all
the allocated paths. When the merge is over, those paths were free()d
as part of free()ing this strmap.
In commit 6697ee01b5 (merge-ort: switch our strmaps over to using
memory pools, 2021-07-30), we changed the allocations for pathnames to
come from a memory pool. That meant the ownership changed slightly;
there were no individual free() calls to make, instead the memory pool
owned all those paths and they were free()d all at once.
Unfortunately unique_path() was written presuming the pre-memory-pool
model, and allocated a path on the heap and left it in the strmap for
later free()ing. Modify it to return a path allocated from the memory
pool instead.
Note that there's one instance -- in record_conflicted_index_entries()
-- where the returned string from unique_path() was only used very
temporarily and thus had been immediately free()'d. This codepath was
associated with an ugly skip-worktree workaround that has since been
better fixed by the in-flight en/present-despite-skipped topic. This
workaround probably makes sense to excise once that topic merges down,
but for now, just remove the immediate free() and allow the returned
string to be free()d when the memory pool is released.
This fixes the following memory leak as reported by valgrind:

detect_and_process_renames() detects renames on both sides of history
and then combines these into a single diff_queue_struct. The combined
diff_queue_struct needs to be able to hold the renames found on either
side, and since it knows the (maximum) size it needs, it pre-emptively
grows the array to the appropriate size:
ALLOC_GROW(combined.queue,
renames->pairs[1].nr + renames->pairs[2].nr,
combined.alloc);
It then collects the items from each side:
collect_renames(opt, &combined, MERGE_SIDE1, ...)
collect_renames(opt, &combined, MERGE_SIDE2, ...)
Note, though, that collect_renames() sometimes determines that some
pairs are unnecessary and does not include them in the combined array.
When it is done, detect_and_process_renames() frees this memory:
if (combined.nr) {
...
free(combined.queue);
}
The problem is that sometimes even when there are pairs, none of them
are necessary. Instead of checking combined.nr, just remove the
if-check; free() knows to skip NULL pointers. This change fixes the
following memory leak, as reported by valgrind:

We have description on "per worktree ref", but "worktree" is not
described in the glossary. We do have "working tree", though.
Casually put, a "working tree" is what your editor and compiler
interacts with. "worktree" is a mechanism to allow one or more
"working tree"s to be attached to a repository and used to check out
different commits and branches independently, which includes not
just a "working tree" but also repository metadata like HEAD, the
index to support simultaneous use of them. Historically, we used
these terms interchangeably but we have been trying to use "working
tree" when we mean it, instead of "worktree".
Most of the existing references to "working tree" in the glossary do
refer primarily to the working tree portion, except for one that
said refs like HEAD and refs/bisect/* are per "working tree", but it
is more precise to say they are per "worktree".
