fixup Perl_magic_freemglob()
In v5.33.3-24-g02a48966c3 I added the Perl_magic_freemglob() function,
which allowed special-case handling of the pos() magic type to be
removed from S_mg_free_struct().
However, I got it wrong, by more or less copying the same code from
another such function I had just created. So I made
Perl_magic_freemglob() free mg_ptr(), but in the case of pos magic, this
doesn't point to a buffer which needs freeing. In fact its currently
always NULL so attempting to free it is harmless - but this commit
removes the free() for logical soundness and future robustness.
