Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 96fcc9ea5f perf auxtrace: Fix queue grow overflow and old array leak
auxtrace_queues__grow() has two bugs:

1. When idx is UINT_MAX, the caller passes new_nr_queues = idx + 1 = 0.
   The function skips growing (since any nr_queues >= 0), returns
   success, and the caller accesses queue_array[UINT_MAX] — an OOB
   heap write.  Fix by rejecting new_nr_queues == 0 up front.

2. The function allocates a new queue_array via calloc and copies
   elements from the old array, but never frees the old array.  Fix
   by saving the old pointer and freeing it after the copy.
