  • % Done changed from 0 to 100

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3197 fixes two problems:

  • virtual destructor is missing in Downstream and Upstream base classes, so that fields in subclasses are not properly deallocated
  • BIO_free_all should be invoked on the first BIO of a chain rather than the last BIO of the chain

After this patch, valgrind --leak-check=full build/unit-tests -t Security/Transform is not reporting any definite or indirect memory leaks.
