config_file: handle errors other than OOM while parsing section headers · 4467aeac
The current code in `parse_section_header_ext` is only prepared to properly handle out-of-memory conditions for the `git_buf` structure. While very unlikely and probably caused by a programming error, it is also possible to run into error conditions other than out-of-memory previous to reaching the actual parsing loop. In these cases, we will run into undefined behavior as the `rpos` variable is only initialized after these triggerable errors, but we use it in the cleanup-routine. Fix the issue by unifying the function's cleanup code with an `end_error` section, which will not use the `rpos` variable.
