libctf: fix a comment typo
ctf_dedup's intern() function does not return a dynamically allocated string, so I just spent ten minutes auditing for obvious memory leaks that couldn't actually happen. Update the comment to note what it actually returns (a pointer into an atoms table: i.e. possibly not a new string, and not so easily leakable). libctf/ * ctf-dedup.c (intern): Update comment.
