[Linux] Fix memory leak in WTF::forEachLine()

[Alicia Boya García]

getline() allocates a buffer even when the read fails because EOF. This buffer also needs to be freed.

Also note the buffer is intended to be reused to avoid making an allocation each time a line is read, getline() will realloc() the buffer autmatically if necessary.

See `man getline()` for an example:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
   FILE *stream;
   char *line = NULL;
   size_t len = 0;
   ssize_t nread;

   if (argc != 2) {
       fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <file>\n", argv[0]);
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }

   stream = fopen(argv[1], "r");
   if (stream == NULL) {
       perror("fopen");
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }

   while ((nread = getline(&line, &len, stream)) != -1) {
       printf("Retrieved line of length %zu:\n", nread);
       fwrite(line, nread, 1, stdout);
   }

   free(line);
   fclose(stream);
   exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

We should get the size of the line string here (lineLength = getline(...)), since “size” is the length of the allocated buffer.

Actually, size is never read in the functor, it's an unused argument.
