Fix memory leak in GIN index scans.
The code had a query-lifespan memory leak when encountering GIN entries
that have posting lists (rather than posting trees, ie, there are a
relatively small number of heap tuples containing this index key value).
With a suitable data distribution this could add up to a lot of leakage.
Problem seems to have been introduced by commit 36a35c550, so back-patch
to 9.4.
