Mark Simonetti reported that libxslt sometimes crashes for him, and that
swapping xslt_process's object-freeing calls around to do them in reverse
order of creation seemed to fix it. I've not reproduced the crash, but
valgrind clearly shows a reference to already-freed memory, which is
consistent with the idea that shutdown of the xsltTransformContext is
trying to reference the already-freed stylesheet or input document.
With this patch, valgrind is no longer unhappy.
I have an inquiry in to see if this is a libxslt bug or if we're just
abusing the library; but even if it's a library bug, we'd want to adjust
our code so it doesn't fail with unpatched libraries.
Back-patch to all supported branches, because we've been doing this in
the wrong(?) order for a long time.
