[PATCH libX11] Fix wrong Xfree in XListFonts failure path

'ch' gets moved inside the allocated buffer as we're looping through
fonts, so keep a reference to the start of the buffer so we can pass
that to Xfree in the failure case.
Fixes: commit 20a3f99eba5001925b8b313da3accb7900eb1927 "Plug a memory leak"
