drmModeGetConnectorCurrent() must provide temporary storage for the kernel to fill in at least one mode (asking for !=0 modes is how you prevent the heavyweight probe in the kernel). Currently we malloc that temp storage but we fail to free it before overwriting the pointer with the address of the actual storage we use to store the real mode list we get from the kernel in the second ioctl call.
Let's just keep the temporary storage on the stack and thus we avoid the leak and also eliminate some pointless mallocs.

That was my initial plan, but then I figured we could also skip the other malloc for disconnected connectors.
