Subject: run-command: factor out child_process_clear()

Avoid duplication by moving the code to release allocated memory for
arguments and environment to its own function, child_process_clear().
Export it to provide a counterpart to child_process_init().

Subject: daemon: plug memory leak

Call child_process_clear() when a child ends to release the memory
allocated for its environment.  This is necessary because unlike all
other users of start_command() we don't call finish_command(), which
would have taken care of that for us.

This leak was introduced by f063d38b (daemon: use cld->env_array
when re-spawning).
