[PATCH 02/12] ima: Create a function to free a rule entry

[Tyler Hicks]

There are several possible pieces of allocated memory in a rule entry.
Create a function that can free all allocated memory for a given rule
entry.

This patch introduces no functional changes but sets the groundwork for
some memory leak fixes.
