fmt-merge-msg: free newly allocated temporary strings when done
origin starts off pointing to somewhere within line, which is owned by the caller. Later we might allocate a new string using xmemdupz() or xstrfmt(). To avoid leaking these new strings, we introduce a to_free pointer - which allows us to safely free the newly allocated string when we're done (we cannot just free origin directly as it might still be pointing to line).
