[issue23689] Memory leak in Modules/sre_lib.h

[Evgeny Kapun]

New submission from Evgeny Kapun:

In Modules/sre_lib.h on line 882 [1], a block of memory is allocated. If SRE(match) function later terminates abruptly, either because of a signal or because subsequent memory allocation fails, this block is never released.
