17e19adde2 Preserve errno across calls to error reporting functions & VIR_FREE
There are cases when we want log an error message, and possibly free
some memory as part of the cleanup, while still preserving errno for a
caller, but the functions that log errors, and virFree (VIR_FREE) make
system calls that will clear errno. This patch preserves errno during
those most basic functions (corresponding to virReportSystemError(),
virReportOOMError(), networkReportError(), etc, as well as
virStrError()). It does *not preserve errno across calls to higher
level items such as virDispatchError(), as it's assumed the caller is
all finished with any need for errno by the time it dispatches the
error.

c73bd6f34a Rename 'remove' param to 'toremove' to avoid clash with stdio.h
The stdio.h header has a function called 'remove' declared. This
clashes with the 'remove' parameter in virShrinkN

* src/util/memory.c: Rename 'remove' to 'toremove'

5a0beacc12 memory: make it safer to expand arrays
* src/util/memory.h (VIR_REALLOC_N): Update docs.
(VIR_EXPAND_N, VIR_SHRINK_N): New macros.

gcc attributes.
* src/util/memory.c (virExpandN, virShrinkN): New functions.
(virReallocN): Update docs.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export new helpers.
* docs/hacking.html.in: Prefer newer interfaces over

62170b9952 Implement variable length structure allocator
* This patch implements a memory allocator to obtain memory for
  structures whose last member is a variable length array.  C99 refers
  to these variable length objects as structs containing flexible
  array members.
* Fixed macro parentheses per Eric Blake
