Stephen Hemminger 448e01f1b5 lib: document free functions
Make sure all functions which use the convention that XXX_free(NULL)
is a nop are all documented.

The wording is chosen to match the documentation of free(3).
"If ptr is NULL, no operation is performed."

[David: squashed with other series updates, unified wording]
