      Coverity is convinced there's a resource leak in the code path through __wt_metadata_search:

      __wt_metadata_search ->
          __wt_turtle_read ->
              __metadata_config ->
                  __wt_config_collapse ->
                      __wt_strndup
      

      and variants of this complaint are currently 25% of our Coverity issues.

      Try and convince Coverity there's really no problem here.
