Jeff King 647e870a08 rebase: use child_process_clear() to clean
In the run_am() function, we set up a child_process struct to run
"git-am", allocating memory for its args and env strvecs. These are
normally cleaned up when we call run_command(). But if we encounter
certain errors, we exit the function early and try to clean up ourselves
by clearing the am.args field. This leaks the "env" strvec.

We should use child_process_clear() instead, which covers both. And more
importantly, it future proofs us against the struct ever growing more
allocated fields.

These are unlikely errors to happen in practice, so they don't actually
trigger the leak sanitizer in the tests. But we can add a new test which
does exercise one of the paths (and fails SANITIZE=leak without this
patch).

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 9ff2f06069 sequencer API users: fix get_replay_opts() leaks
Make the replay_opts_release() function added in the preceding commit
non-static, and use it for freeing the "struct replay_opts"
constructed for "rebase" and "revert".

To safely call our new replay_opts_release() we'll need to stop
calling it in sequencer_remove_state(), and instead call it where we
allocate the "struct replay_opts" itself.

This is because in e.g. do_interactive_rebase() we construct a "struct
replay_opts" with "get_replay_opts()", and then call
"complete_action()". If we get far enough in that function without
encountering errors we'll call "pick_commits()" which (indirectly)
calls sequencer_remove_state() at the end.

But if we encounter errors anywhere along the way we'd punt out early,
and not free() the memory we allocated. Remembering whether we
previously called sequencer_remove_state() would be a hassle.

Using a FREE_AND_NULL() pattern would also work, as it would be safe
to call replay_opts_release() repeatedly. But let's fix this properly
instead, by having the owner of the data free() it.

Jeff King 45350aeb11 sequencer: detect author name errors in read_author_script()
As we parse the author-script file, we check for missing or duplicate
lines for GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, etc. But after reading the whole file, our
final error conditional checks "date_i" twice and "name_i" not at all.
This not only leads to us failing to abort, but we may do an
out-of-bounds read on the string_list array.

The bug goes back to 442c36bd08 (am: improve author-script error
reporting, 2018-10-31), though the code was soon after moved to this
spot by bcd33ec25f (add read_author_script() to libgit, 2018-10-31).
It was presumably just a typo in 442c36bd08.

We'll add test coverage for all the error cases here, though only the
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME ones fail (even in a vanilla build they segfault
consistently, but certainly with SANITIZE=address).
