merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output buffer
The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point, we forgot to release the output buffer. When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself. For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it may still be needed. Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range, however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.
