newlib: libc: Fix memory leak in computematchjumps()
In cases where malloc fails for the 'g->matchjump' allocation, the code path does not handle the failure gracefully, potentially leading to a memory leak. This fix ensures proper cleanup by freeing the allocated memory for 'pmatches' before returning. Signed-off-by: Kuan-Wei Chiu <visitorckw@gmail.com>
