batman-adv: Fix TT global entry leak when client roamed back

When a client roamed back to a node before it got time to destroy the pending local entry (i.e. within the same originator interval) the old global one is directly removed from hash table and left as such.

But because this entry had an extra reference taken at lookup (i.e using batadv_tt_global_hash_find) there is no way its memory will be reclaimed at any time causing the following memory leak:

Releasing the extra reference from batadv_tt_global_hash_find even at roam back when batadv_tt_global_free is called fixes this memory leak.
