Fixes errors reported by Parfait 0.5.0.1 bug checking tool:

Error: Memory leak (CWE 401)
   Memory leak of pointer '<unknown>' allocated with XGetAtomName(dpy, info->type)
        at line 122 of src/list.c in function 'print_info'.
          pointer allocated at line 84 with XGetAtomName(dpy, info->type).
          <unknown> leaks when i >= info->num_classes at line 88.

   Memory leak of pointer '<unknown>' allocated with XGetAtomName(dpy, act_type)

          pointer allocated at line 504 with XGetAtomName(dpy, act_type).
   Memory leak of pointer 'name' allocated with XGetAtomName(dpy, property)
        at line 521 of src/property.c in function 'print_property_xi2'.
          'name' allocated at line 428 with XGetAtomName(dpy, property).

Confirmed with Solaris Studio runtime checker that "list-props" now has
fewer leaks than before and "watch-props" no longer leaks a string every
time a property changes.
