Nick Mathewson 65575b0755 Stop leaking memory in error cases of md parsing
When clearing a list of tokens, it's important to do token_clear()
on them first, or else any keys they contain will leak.  This didn't
leak memory on any of the successful microdescriptor parsing paths,
but it does leak on some failing paths when the failure happens
during tokenization.

Fixes bug 11618; bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha.

o Major bugfixes (security, OOM)
- Fix a memory leak that could occur if a microdescriptor parse
fails during the tokenizing step. This could enable a memory
exhaustion attack by directory servers. Fixes bug #11649; bugfix
on 0.2.2.6-alpha.
