[PATCH 19/26] plugins: fix memory leak while parsing options

[Alex Bennée]

It was hard to track down this leak as it was an internal allocation
by glib and the backtraces did not give much away. The autofree was
freeing the allocation with g_free() but not taking care of the
individual strings. They should have been freed with g_strfreev()
instead.

Searching the glib source code for the correct string free function
led to:

  G_DEFINE_AUTO_CLEANUP_FREE_FUNC(GStrv, g_strfreev, NULL)

and indeed if you read to the bottom of the documentation page you
will find:

  typedef gchar** GStrv;

  A typedef alias for gchar**. This is mostly useful when used together with 
g_auto().

So fix up all the g_autofree g_strsplit case that smugly thought they
had de-allocation covered.
