The NSMutableArray being assigned to Patch.diffs isn't being autoreleased correctly. Since it's being assigned to a synthesized property marked with retain, and the NSMutableArray is being initialized with alloc-init, the array needs to be autoreleased so that it doesn't leak.

@atdrendel with @jleandroperez' help I found that we applied an identical patch back in 2013

Simperium/simperium-ios@685c16d

Seems to have been working since then. I've applied this to my fork, which I'm trying to maintain now since this repo is hibernating.
