Cleanup the handling of --strategy-option now that we no longer need to
support "--preserve-merges" and properly quote the argument when saving
it to disc.

A hopefully final re-roll to fix a memory leak I spotted in V3.

Changes since V3:
 - Fixed a memory leak added in V3. The array returned by
   split_cmdline() is allocated on the heap so we need to fee it. The
   array elements come from the string passed to split_cmdline() so do
   not need to be individually freed.

Changes since V2:

 - Added Elijah's Reviewed-by: trailer.
 - Fixed a typo in patch 4 spotted by Elijah.

Changes since V1:

I've rebased these patches onto 'master' to avoid conflicts with
'sg/parse-options-h-initializers' in the new patch 2 (this series
depends on 'ab/fix-strategy-opts-parsing' but that has now been merged
to master).

Patch 1 - Unchanged.

Patch 2 - New patch to store the merge strategy options in an "struct
          strvec". This patch also introduces a new macro OPT_STRVEC()
          to collect options into an "struct strvec".

Patch 3 - Small simplification due to the changes in patch 2.

Patch 4 - Moved the code to quote a list so it can split by
          split_cmdline() into a new function quote_cmdline() as
	  suggested by Elijah.

Patch 5 - Reworded the commit message as suggested by Elijah.

Doh, I clearly missed that leak too.

And in particular, that string that stores those array elements will
be freed by the strbuf_reset() that comes immediately after the
read_strategy_opts() call (read_strategy_opts() is the sole caller of
parse_strategy_opts()), and the fact that the string is freed is fine
since your parse_strategy_opts() passes them to strvec_push() which
will xstrdup() them and then own them.

All that to say I agree with the fix.
