delete on a null pointer is guaranteed to be a no-op by the C++ standard, and free(NULL) is a no-op per C11 §7.22.3.3. The redundant guards add visual noise without providing any safety benefit. Github-Issue:cern-eos#53

Summary
Remove redundant null pointer checks before
deleteandfree()calls in three locations identified in #53.In C++,
delete nullptris guaranteed to be a no-op by the standard (ISO C++ FAQ). Similarly,free(NULL)is defined as a no-op by the C standard (C11 §7.22.3.3).Changes
