Björn Steinbrink de551d472e process_{tree,blob}: Remove useless xstrdup calls ...

The name of the processed object was duplicated for passing it to
add_object(), but that already calls path_name, which allocates a new
string anyway. So the memory allocated by the xstrdup calls just went
nowhere, leaking memory.

This reduces the RSS usage for a "rev-list --all --objects" by about 10% on
the gentoo repo (fully packed) as well as linux-2.6.git:
