sparse-checkout: always free "line" strbuf after reading input
In add_patterns_from_input(), we may read lines from a file with a loop like this: while (!strbuf_getline(&line, file)) { ... strbuf_to_cone_pattern(&line, pl); } /* we don't strbuf_release(&line) here! */ This generally is OK because strbuf_to_cone_pattern() consumes the buffer via strbuf_detach(). But we can leak in a few cases: 1. We don't always consume the buffer! If the line ends up empty after trimming, we leave strbuf_to_cone_pattern() without detaching. In most cases this is OK, because a subsequent getline() call will use the same buffer. But if you had an empty line at the end of file, for example, it would leak. 2. Even if strbuf_to_cone_pattern() always consumed the buffer, there's a subtle issue with strbuf_getline(). As we saw in 94e2aa555e (strbuf: fix leak when `appendwholeline()` fails with EOF, 2024-05-27), it's possible for it to return EOF with an allocated buffer (e.g., if the underlying getdelim() call saw an error). So we should always strbuf_release() after finishing a read loop like this. Note that even the code to read patterns from argv has the same problem. Because that also uses strbuf_to_cone_pattern(), we stuff each argv entry into a strbuf. It uses the same "line" strbuf as the getline code, but we should position the strbuf_release() to cover both code paths. This fixes at least 9 leaks found in t1091.
