Subject: [PATCH 1/2] kconfig: qconf: use delete[] instead of delete to free array (again)

Commit c9b09a9249e6 ("kconfig: qconf: use delete[] instead of delete
to free array") fixed two lines, but there is one more.
(cppcheck does not report it for some reason...)

This was detected by Clang.

"make HOSTCXX=clang++ xconfig" reports the following:

scripts/kconfig/qconf.cc:1279:2: warning: 'delete' applied to a pointer that was allocated with 'new[]'; did you mean 'delete[]'? [-Wmismatched-new-delete]
        delete data;
        ^
              []
scripts/kconfig/qconf.cc:1239:15: note: allocated with 'new[]' here
        char *data = new char[count + 1];
                     ^
