Commit e8c9e65816 "qom: Make "info qom-tree" show children sorted"
created a memory leak, because I didn't realize
object_get_canonical_path_component()'s value needs to be freed.
Reproducer:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -S -monitor stdio
QEMU 5.0.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info qom-tree
This leaks some 4500 path components, 12-13 characters on average,
i.e. roughly 100kBytes depending on the allocator. A couple of
hundred "info qom-tree" here, a couple of hundred there, and soon
enough we're talking about real memory.
Plug the leak.
