GUI: memory leaks in 0.6.0 on windows

Description

Just did a run through BoundsChecker and detected these leaks. Looking at the code, they sure look like leaks to me as well. They appear to be related WindowsFilesystemNode::addFile(), which was called many times as I was browsing the filesystem and adding games via the launcher UI.

String::ensureCapacity (str.cpp, L209) char *newStr = (char *)calloc(1, newCapacity+1);

WindowsFilesystemNode::clone (windows-fs.cpp, line 54) virtual FilesystemNode *clone() const { return new WindowsFilesystemNode(this); }

WindowsFilesystemNode::listDir (windows-fs.cpp, line 143) FSList *myList = new FSList();

All of these are not one-time leaks, and happen many many times. I can give more details if necessary, but it looks pretty obvious to me.

I don't think the String class is leaking; however, the FSNodes have strings as members, so if they leak, then of course also string objects get leaked.

The only leak I found was in addGame(). Try modifying gui/launcher.cpp, LauncherDialog::addGame(), insert line 411:

delete files; files = 0;

Does that help?
