fix: memory leak from double buffer initialization in read_stdin #35413

Problem: When stdin follows files, set_curbuf() initializes buffer via
enter_buffer(), then open_buffer() initializes again, causing memory leaks.

Solution: Use readfile() directly for new buffers already initialized by
enter_buffer(), only call open_buffer() for original buffer case.
