For a few cases where we handle secret information it's good to clear
the buffers containing sensitive data before freeing them.
Introduce VIR_DISPOSE, VIR_DISPOSE_N and VIR_DISPOSE_STRING that allow
simple clearing fo the buffers holding sensitive information on cleanup
paths.
Any source file which calls the logging APIs now needs
to have a VIR_LOG_INIT("source.name") declaration at
the start of the file. This provides a static variable
of the virLogSource type.

When the various viralloc.c functions were changed to use the
normal error reporting code, the OOM injection code paths
were not updated to report errors.

VIR_APPEND_ELEMENT(array, size, elem) was not safe if the expression
for 'size' had side effects. While no one in the current code base
was trying to pass side effects, we might as well be robust and
explicitly document our intentions.
* src/util/viralloc.c (virInsertElementsN): Add special case.
* src/util/viralloc.h (VIR_APPEND_ELEMENT): Use it.
(VIR_ALLOC, VIR_ALLOC_N, VIR_REALLOC_N, VIR_EXPAND_N)
(VIR_RESIZE_N, VIR_SHRINK_N, VIR_INSERT_ELEMENT)
(VIR_DELETE_ELEMENT, VIR_ALLOC_VAR, VIR_FREE): Document
which macros are safe in the presence of side effects.
* docs/hacking.html.in: Document this.
* HACKING: Regenerate.

Commit 0df3e89 only touched the header, but the .c file had the
same shadowing potential.
* src/util/viralloc.c (virDeleteElementsN): s/remove/toremove/ to
match the header.
