[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 18/31] libsubcmd: Fix memory leak in uniq()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Ian Rogers <irogers@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ad30469a841b50dbb541df4d6971d891f703c297 ]

uniq() will write one command name over another causing the overwritten
string to be leaked. Fix by doing a pass that removes duplicates and a
second that removes the holes.
