patch_parse: fix segfault due to line containing static contents With commit dedf70ad2 (patch_parse: do not depend on parsed buffer's lifetime, 2019-07-05), all lines of the patch are allocated with `strdup` to make lifetime of the parsed patch independent of the buffer that is currently being parsed. In patch b08932824 (patch_parse: ensure valid patch output with EOFNL, 2019-07-11), we introduced another code location where we add lines to the parsed patch. But as that one was implemented via a separate pull request, it wasn't converted to use `strdup`, as well. As a consequence, we generate a segfault when trying to deallocate the potentially static buffer that's now in some of the lines. Use `git__strdup` to fix the issue.
