  _int_free must be called with a chunk that has its tag reset. This was
missing in a rare case that could crash when heap tagging is enabled:
when in a multi-threaded process the current arena runs out of memory
during realloc, but another arena still has space to finish the realloc
then _int_free was called without clearing the user allocation tags.

Fixes bug 27468.
