Fix memory leak in printtup.c.
Commit f2dec34e1 changed things so that printtup's output stringinfo
buffer was allocated outside the per-row temporary context, not inside
it. This creates a need to free that buffer explicitly when the temp
context is freed, but that was overlooked. In most cases, this is all
happening inside a portal or executor context that will go away shortly
anyhow, but that's not always true. Notably, the stringinfo ends up
getting leaked when JDBC uses row-at-a-time fetches. For a query
that returns wide rows, that adds up after awhile.
Per bug #15700 from Matthias Otterbach. Back-patch to v11 where the
faulty code was added.
