refs: fix memory leak when parsing hideRefs config

When parsing the hideRefs configuration, we first duplicate the config
value so that we can modify it. We then subsequently append it to the
`hide_refs` string list, which is initialized with `strdup_strings`
enabled. As a consequence we again reallocate the string, but never
free the first duplicate and thus have a memory leak.

While we never clean up the static `hide_refs` variable anyway, this is
no excuse to make the leak worse by leaking every value twice. We are
also about to change the way this variable will be handled so that we do
indeed start to clean it up. So let's fix the memory leak by using the
`string_list_append_nodup()` so that we pass ownership of the allocated
string to `hide_refs`.
