    process_{tree,blob}: Remove useless xstrdup calls · de551d47

    The name of the processed object was duplicated for passing it to
    add_object(), but that already calls path_name, which allocates a new
    string anyway. So the memory allocated by the xstrdup calls just went
    nowhere, leaking memory.
    
    This reduces the RSS usage for a "rev-list --all --objects" by about 10% on
    the gentoo repo (fully packed) as well as linux-2.6.git:
