    Fix memory leak in char* type KvpValue and fix improper uses
    
    The core issue was that the delete visitor was never called because its parameter
    type (char *) didn't match the boost::variant type (const char *).
    Fixing the visitor's parameter type also require a const_cast
    back to char * because that's what g_free takes as argument.
    
    The rest of this commit is merely fixing KvpValue instantiations that
    tried to create a char* KvpValue from a stack based const string instead
    of a heap allocated one. That would bomb out on calling the
    delete visitor.

    Plug memory leak in xaccSplitDestroy
    
    Splits were not marked for deletion if the transaction is read-only
    and the account is not marked for deletion yet. The net result is
    that split will not be freed later on.
    However xaccSplitDestroy is also called from a Transaction's do_destroy.
    At that point accounts are not necessarily marked for deletion yet (like
    is the case when a datafile is closed). This turned out to be a problem
    for invoice post transactions (which are also read only) and hence
    would cause memory to leak.
