These two functions keep a copy of filename it was given, let
gitdiff_verify_name() to rewrite it to a new filename and then free
the original if they receive a newly minted filename.

However

(1) when the original name is NULL, gitdiff_verify_name() returns
either NULL or a newly minted value. Either case, we do not
have to worry about calling free() on the original NULL.

(2) when the original name is not NULL, gitdiff_verify_name()
either returns that as-is, or calls die() when it finds
inconsistency in the patch. When the function returns, we know
that "if ()" statement always is false.

Noticed by Christian Couder.
