fast-import was encounting a GPF when it ran out of free tree_entry
objects but didn't know this was the cause because the last
tree_entry wasn't terminated with a NULL pointer.  The missing NULL
pointer occurred when we allocated additional entries via xmalloc
but didn't set the last tree_entry's "next" pointer to NULL.
