Subject: [PATCH] Currently, contrib/oid2name doesn't bother to free() the
 memory that it malloc()'s. This isn't too serious (because oid2name is a
 short-lived utility, so the memory will soon be returned to the OS on process
 termination), but I still think it's poor style.

This patch changes oid2name so that it allocates memory on the stack
where possible and free()s the remaining heap-allocated memory. The
patch also fixes a typo a comment and adds 'const' qualifiers to a few
'char *' function parameters.
