Research direction
Locate mp3dec_load_cb() and mp3dec_file_info_t in minimp3.h, then trace where info->buffer is allocated and who owns it. Check callers and examples to decide whether the free belongs in the callback or in the caller. Done when the buffer is released on every path without double-freeing; run the existing test or example build to confirm.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The mp3dec_file_info_t *info->buffer, allocated in mp3dec_load_cb() function is never freed
