[ovs-dev] [PATCHv3 1/3] ovsdb-idl: Fix memory leak

[Yifeng Sun]

Valgrind testcase 2339 (ovn -- ipam connectivity) reports the leak below:
45 (32 direct, 13 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 65 of 83
    at 0x4C2DB8F: malloc (in /usr/lib/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x4A6D64: xmalloc (util.c:120)
    by 0x49C847: shash_add_nocopy__ (shash.c:109)
    by 0x49C847: shash_add_nocopy (shash.c:121)
    by 0x49CA85: shash_add (shash.c:129)
    by 0x49CA85: shash_add_once (shash.c:136)
    by 0x4914B5: ovsdb_idl_create_index (ovsdb-idl.c:2067)
    by 0x406C98: create_ovnsb_indexes (ovn-controller.c:568)
    by 0x406C98: main (ovn-controller.c:619)

The leak happens when vsdb_idl_table is freed but its indexes are not freed.

v1->v2: Amend comments.
v2->v3: Fix error in patch.
