list-objects-filter-options: work around reported leak on error

This one is a little bit more curious. In t6112, we have a test that
exercises the `git rev-list --filter` option with invalid filters. We
execute git-rev-list(1) via `test_must_fail`, which means that we check
for leaks even though Git exits with an error code. This causes the
following leak:

    Direct leak of 27 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

This leak is valid, as we call `die()` and do not clean up the memory at
all. But what's curious is that this is the only leak reported, because
we don't clean up any other allocated memory, either, and I have no idea
why the leak sanitizer treats this buffer specially.

In any case, we can work around the leak by shuffling things around a
bit. Instead of calling `gently_parse_list_objects_filter()` and dying
after we have modified the filter spec, we simply do so beforehand. Like
this we don't allocate the buffer in the error case, which makes the
reported leak go away.

It's not pretty, but it manages to make t6112 leak free.
