`value` is just a temporary scratchpad, so we need to make sure it doesn't
leak. It is xstrdup'd in `git_config_get_string` and
`parse_notes_merge_strategy` just compares the string against predefined
values, so no need to keep it around longer. Make `value` non-const to
avoid the cast in the free.
