Customer Impact
Reported by a customer in #99933. Customers using the X509Certificate2.GetNameInfo API on Linux may leak native memory which is never freed, leading to resource starvation.
Regression
Testing
The fix was tested by observing the memory usage of the affected API in a loop and seeing that native resources were being freed appropriately.
Risk
Low. The fix is to use the correct API to free the native resource, and the correct API is used elsewhere in the native shim, so its behavior is understood.
