x509: clarify how to release memory allocated for DN

Daiki Ueno requested to merge dueno/gnutls:wip/dueno/doc-fixes into master

The application can assume that DNs returned from _gnutls_x509_get_dn() are allocated with gnutls_malloc() and thus shall be freed with gnutls_free().

Fixes: #1110 (closed)
