pam_mkhomedir: simplify handling of newsource/newdest
To support OSes without PATH_MAX (which is optional in POSIX), there are
two code paths for the 'newsource' and 'newdest' variables: one using
a PATH_MAX-sized stack buffer, and one using heap allocation. The second
is even more complicated than needed, doing manual calculations and
allocations.
To simplify the code a bit more, easing its maintenance, unify the two
using asprintf() to allocate 'newsource' and 'newdest': the extra
allocation needed should not be an issue, since this code runs in a
separate helper executable.
As additional change for this simplification, remove the reset to the
two variables to NULL right after their free(), which is not needed
since their scopes end.
