MDEV-17260: Memory leaks in mysqlbinlog

Problem:
========
The mysqlbinlog tool is leaking memory, causing failures in various tests when
compiling and testing with AddressSanitizer or LeakSanitizer like this:

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DWITH_ASAN:BOOL=ON /path/to/source
make -j$(nproc)
cd mysql-test
ASAN_OPTIONS=abort_on_error=1 ./mtr --parallel=auto

Analysis:
=========
Two types of leaks were observed during above execution.

1) Leak in Log_event::read_log_event(char const*, unsigned int, char const**,
   Format_description_log_event const*, char)
   File: sql/log_event.cc:2150

For all row based replication events the memory which is allocated during
read_log_event is not freed after the event is processed. The event specific
memory has to be retained only when flashback option is enabled with
mysqlbinlog tool. In this case all the events are retained till the end
statement is received and they are processed in reverse order and they are
destroyed. But in the existing code all events are retained irrespective of
flashback mode. Hence the memory leaks are observed.

2) read_remote_annotate_event(unsigned char*, unsigned long, char const**)
   File: client/mysqlbinlog.cc:194

In general the Annotate event is not printed immediately because all
subsequent rbr-events can be filtered away. Instead it will be printed
together with the first not filtered away Table map or the last rbr will be
processed. While reading remote annotate events memory is allocated for event
buffer and event's temp_buf is made to point to the allocated buffer as shown
below.  The TRUE flag is used for doing proper cleanup using free_temp_buf().
i.e at the time of deletion of annotate event its destructor takes care of
clearing the temp_buf.

/*
  Ensure the event->temp_buf is pointing to the allocated buffer.
  (TRUE = free temp_buf on the event deletion)
*/
 event->register_temp_buf((char*)event_buf, TRUE);

But existing code does the following when it receives a remote annotate_event.

if (remote_opt)
  ev->temp_buf= 0;

That is code immediately sets temp_buf=0, because of which free_temp_buf()
call will return empty handed as it has lost the reference to the allocated
temporary buffer. This results in memory leak

Fix:
====
1) If not in flashback mode, destroy the memory for events once they are
processed.

2) Remove the ev->temp_buf=0 code for remote option. Let the proper cleanup to
be done as part of free_temp_buf().
