notes: avoid potential use-after-free during insertion

The note_tree_insert() function may free the leaf_node struct we pass in
(e.g., if it's a duplicate, or if it needs to be combined with an
existing note).

Most callers are happy with this, as they assume that ownership of the
struct is handed off. But in load_subtree(), if we see an error we'll
use the handed-off struct's key_oid to generate the die() message,
potentially accessing freed memory.

We can easily fix this by instead using the original oid that we copied
into the leaf_node struct.
