reduce_heads: fix memory leaks

We currently have seven callers of `reduce_heads(foo)`. Six of them do
not use the original list `foo` again, and actually, all six of those
end up leaking it.

Introduce and use `reduce_heads_replace(&foo)` as a leak-free version of
`foo = reduce_heads(foo)` to fix several of these. Fix the remaining
leaks using `free_commit_list()`.

While we're here, document `reduce_heads()` and mark it as `extern`.
