[PATCH v3 6/6] refs: plug memory leak in repo_default_branch_name()

Fix a memory leak in repo_default_branch_name(), we'll leak memory
before exit(128) here.

Normally we would not care much about such leaks, we do leak the
memory, as e.g. valgrind(1) will report. But the more commonly used
SANITIZE=leak mode will use GCC and Clang's LSAN mode will not
normally report such leaks.

At least one GCC version does that in this case, and having the tests
fail under -O3 would be annoying, so let's free() the allocated memory
here.

This uses a new die_message() function introduced in a preceding
commit. That new function makes the flow around such code easier to
manage. In this case we can't free(ret) before the die().

In this case only the "free(full_ref)" appears to be needed, but since
we're freeing one let's free both, some other compiler or version
might arrange this code in such a way as to complain about "ret" too
with SANITIZE=leak, and valgrind(1) will do so in any case.
