Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason abf897bacd string-list.[ch]: remove string_list_init() compatibility function
Remove this function left over to accommodate in-flight changes, see
770fedaf9f (string-list.[ch]: add a string_list_init_{nodup,dup}(),
2021-07-01) for the recent change to add
"string_list_init_{nodup,dup}()" initializers.

There was only one user of the API left in remote-curl.c. I don't know
why I didn't include this change to remote-curl.c in
bc40dfb10a (string-list.h users: change to use *_{nodup,dup}(),
2021-07-01), perhaps I just missed it.

In any case, let's change that one user to use the new API, as of
writing this there are no in-flight changes that use, so this seems
like a good time to drop this before we get any new users of this
compatibility API.

#ifndef STRING_LIST_H

/**
* The string_list API offers a data structure and functions to handle
* sorted and unsorted arrays of strings. A "sorted" list is one whose
* entries are sorted by string value in the order specified by the `cmp`
* member (`strcmp()` by default).
*
* The caller:
*
* . Allocates and clears a `struct string_list` variable.
*
* . Initializes the members. You might want to set the flag `strdup_strings`
* if the strings should be strdup()ed. For example, this is necessary
* when you add something like git_path("..."), since that function returns
* a static buffer that will change with the next call to git_path().
*
* If you need something advanced, you can manually malloc() the `items`
* member (you need this if you add things later) and you should set the
* `nr` and `alloc` members in that case, too.
*
* . Adds new items to the list, using `string_list_append`,
* `string_list_append_nodup`, `string_list_insert`,
* `string_list_split`, and/or `string_list_split_in_place`.
*
* . Can check if a string is in the list using `string_list_has_string` or
* `unsorted_string_list_has_string` and get it from the list using
* `string_list_lookup` for sorted lists.
*
* . Can sort an unsorted list using `string_list_sort`.
*
* . Can remove duplicate items from a sorted list using
* `string_list_remove_duplicates`.
*
* . Can remove individual items of an unsorted list using
* `unsorted_string_list_delete_item`.
*
* . Can remove items not matching a criterion from a sorted or unsorted
* list using `filter_string_list`, or remove empty strings using
* `string_list_remove_empty_items`.
*
* . Finally it should free the list using `string_list_clear`.
*
* Example:
*
* struct string_list list = STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP;
* int i;
*
* string_list_append(&list, "foo");
* string_list_append(&list, "bar");
* for (i = 0; i < list.nr; i++)
* printf("%s\n", list.items[i].string)
*
* NOTE: It is more efficient to build an unsorted list and sort it
* afterwards, instead of building a sorted list (`O(n log n)` instead of
* `O(n^2)`).
*
* However, if you use the list to check if a certain string was added
* already, you should not do that (using unsorted_string_list_has_string()),
* because the complexity would be quadratic again (but with a worse factor).

* You should not tamper with it.
* . Setting the `strdup_strings` member to 1 will strdup() the strings
* before adding them, see above.
* . The `compare_strings_fn` member is used to specify a custom compare
* function, otherwise `strcmp()` is used as the default function.
