read_gitfile_gently: fix use-after-free
The "dir" variable is a pointer into the "buf" array. When
we hit the cleanup_return path, the first thing we do is
free(buf); but one of the error messages prints "dir", which
will access the memory after the free.
We can fix this by reorganizing the error path a little. We
act on the fatal, error-printing conditions first, as they
want to access memory and do not care about freeing. Then we
free any memory, and finally return.
