Title:
  one-liner from upstream fixes plocate free() crash

Status in plocate package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  My `plocate 1.1.15-1ubuntu2` on ubuntu22 amd64 with all patches applied is now crashing with:
  ```
  free(): invalid pointer
  Aborted
  ```
  on any `locate` (which is `/usr/bin/plocate` via `alternatives`).  After getting the source and applying sole upstream patch 7f39444 on top of 1.1.15 (see attached) it fixes the issue and locate succeeds (no need to regen db).  This patch changes a single `free()` call in IOUringEngine() to a `io_uring_free_probe()`.

  Please apply to ubuntu22 or bump upstream base to minimum 1.1.19 which
  is the first tag to contain 7f39444.  Thanks.
