We don't need to use "delete" for varobj_iter, because you didn't add
std::string member in varobj_iter. This change causes an ASAN error,
-var-create container @ c^M

reverting the change above fixes the error. We can also C++-fy
varobj_iter, but I'd like to do in another patch. How is the patch below?
