patch 9.2.0257: unnecessary memory allocation in set_callback()

Problem:  Unnecessary memory allocation in set_callback(); after
          set_callback(), callers must manually free the source
          callback's name if cb_free_name is set.
Solution: Refactor set_callback() to re-use the callback name when
          possible to avoid extra memory allocations and clean up so the
          callers do not have to take care themselves (Shane Harper).
