Summary: memory leak when connection is lost

Initial Comment:
Version: libssh2-1.2.2

Memory for outgoing packet buffer is allocated to (session->packet->outbuf) on transport.c:737.
When the connection is lost during the session, _libssh2_transport_write() will keep the data
to send it after (transport.c:783-794).

The problem is, when I call libssh2_session_free() to cleanup the resouces, it won't
cleanup the kept memory allocated to (session->packet->outbuf).

By cleaning up (session->packet->outbuf) in session_free(), the problem could be fixed.
(Please see the diff file)
