Thanks for identifying this leak, Kyle! (Otto's recent malloc changes
have been really nice :)

We can't unconditionally close the worktree here, however, as this
produces a segv in the error case when 'got status' is run outside a
worktree as status's regress reveals.

We just need to guard it with a NULL check as per the below diff.

ok?
