In git-upload-archive(1), we pass an array of arguments to `write_archive()` to tell it what exactly to do. We don't ever clear the vector though, causing a memory leak. Furthermore though, the call to `write_archive()` may cause contents of the array to be modified, which would cause us to leak memory to allocated strings held by it. Fix the issue by having `write_archive()` create a shallow copy of `argv` before parsing the arguments. Like this, we won't modify the caller's array and can easily `strvec_clear()` it to plug these memory leaks.
