A struct fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_shared is shared between the main thread and two child threads. This struct contains an array of fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry.

fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry and fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_shared were freed separately, and if fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_shared was freed first and then an attempt was made to free a fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry, a heap-use-after-free could occur.

This change avoids that possibility by separating the deallocation of the addrinfo memory held by fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry from the access and lifecycle of the fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry itself.

A `struct fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_shared` is shared between the main thread and two child threads.
This struct contains an array of `fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry`.

`fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry` and `fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_shared` were freed separately, and if `fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_shared` was freed first and then an attempt was made to free a `fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry`, a `heap-use-after-free` could occur.

This change avoids that possibility by separating the deallocation of the addrinfo memory held by `fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry` from the access and lifecycle of the `fast_fallback_getaddrinfo_entry` itself.
