symbolic-ref: don't leak shortened refname in check_symref()

shorten_unambiguous_ref() returns an allocated string. We have to
track it separately from the const refname.

This leak has existed since:
9ab55daa55 (git symbolic-ref --delete $symref, 2012-10-21)

This leak was found when running t0001 with LSAN, see also LSAN output
below:

Direct leak of 19 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
