Fix memory leak in download payload->remote_name
In the sync code, we explicitly allocated a string for this field, while
in the dload code itself it was filled in with a pointer to another
string. This led to a memory leak in the sync download case.
Make remote_name non-const and always explicitly allocate it. This patch
ensures this as well as uses malloc + snprintf (rather than calloc) in
several codepaths, and eliminates the only use of PATH_MAX in the
download code.
