This PR fixes two double frees in clib_package_new_from_slug_with_package_name(), which were
found and reported by @HoshinoStranding (thank you!)
It appears that git has run a code-formatting pre-commit hook on the first commit, making it
a little messy, but at it's core we simply assign NULL to just-freed variables so that we don't try to
free them again. I also removed a few unnecessary nullability checks, since the initial ones are
done right after calling the corresponding parse functions and are more than enough.
Fixes: #307 #308

Since the check is done right after calling `parse_repo_{owner,version}()`,
there is no need to do that down into the function.
Besides that, if `author` was ever null, a call to `strdup(author)`
would invoke undefined behaviour.
