RFR: 8303070: Memory leak in DCmdArgument<char*>::parse_value [v3]

[David Holmes]

> If we have a default value for the char* DCmdArgument we copy it into the `_value` field using `parse_value` to make a copy in C-heap. If we then parse an actual argument value, we replace the default but don't free it. The parse method needs to use realloc.
