[PATCH v2] cmd: avb: free partition buffer upon verify completion

[Gary Bisson]

Doing the same as the unittests for libavb [1].

Allows to run 'avb verify' multiple times which can be useful after a
failure to be able to re-flash the partition and try again.

Hi,

Changelog v2:
- use avb_slot_verity_data_free as suggested by Igor

This was added because of the following scenario:
1- fastboot flash boot boot.img
2- avb verify
  -> fails because vbmeta wasn't updated
3- fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
4- avb verify
  -> fails because it can't allocate memory as previous buffer wasn't
freed

Let me know if you have any questions.

Regards,
Gary
