When using getaddrinfo(), memory is allocated which later needs to be
freed using freeaddrinfo().
From the manual:
int getaddrinfo(const char *node, const char *service,
const struct addrinfo *hints,
struct addrinfo **res);
void freeaddrinfo(struct addrinfo *res);
The freeaddrinfo() function frees the memory that was allocated
for the dynamically allocated linked list res.
