I moved that code without considering that. The documentation
explicitly states that the result is allocated in pool but I think we
can change that. It also allows me to rename pool to scratch_pool. I
suppose there is a theoretical problem if libsvn_fs is dynamically
loaded and the caller is passing a pool with a longer lifetime than the
library. The constant string in the dynamic library would then have a
shorter lifetime than it does now. Unlikely in practice I think.
