On my use case involving 771 islands of Linux on kernel.org,
this reduces memory usage by around 25MB. The bulk of that
comes from free_remote_islands, since free_config_regexes only
saves around 40k.
This memory is saved early in the memory-intensive pack process,
making it available for the remainder of the long process.
