During parallel pg_dump, free commands from master

The command strings read by the child processes during parallel
pg_dump, after being read and handled, were not being free'd.
This patch corrects this relatively minor memory leak.

Leak found by the Coverity scanner.

Back patch to 9.3 where parallel pg_dump was introduced.
