Hi folk,
I have a question on memory leak when deserialize.
In the fuctions such as lwmpoly_deserialize, lwmline_deserialize and
lwmpoint_deserialize, there is a temporal variable named insp which is
defined as LWGEOM_INSPECTED *insp;  It allocated memory when it
initialized in  the statement : insp = lwgeom_inspect(srl);
However, when finished, nowhere to free this memory which causes
memory leak.
Is that a bug or on purpose?  or should be free manully by some
methods?

Regards!
Chenzhen
