cocci: refactor common patterns to use xstrdup_or_null()

d64ea0f83b ("git-compat-util: add xstrdup_or_null helper",
2015-01-12) added a handy wrapper that allows us to get a duplicate
of a string or NULL if the original is NULL, but a handful of
codepath predate its introduction or just weren't aware of it.
