The use case VIR_ALLOC_VAR deals with is very unlikely. We had just 2
legitimate uses, which were reimplemented locally using g_malloc0 and
sizeof instead as they used a static number of members of the trailing
array.
Remove VIR_ALLOC_VAR since in most cases the direct implementation is
shorter and clearer and there are no users of it currently.

The macros are unused now and callers who care about clearing the memory
they use should use memset() appropriately.

Our implementation masks GCC warnings of uninitialized use of the passed
argument. After changing this I got a load of following warnings:
src/conf/virnetworkportdef.c: In function 'virNetworkPortDefSaveStatus':

For the curious, g_clear_pointer is still safe for arguments with
side-effect. Here's the pre-processed output of trying to do a
VIR_FREE(*(test2++)):
do {
typedef char _GStaticAssertCompileTimeAssertion_1[(sizeof *(&(*(test2++))) == sizeof (gpointer)) ? 1 : -1] __attribute__((__unused__));
__typeof__((&(*(test2++)))) _pp = (&(*(test2++)));
__typeof__(*(&(*(test2++)))) _ptr = *_pp;
*_pp = ((void *)0);
if (_ptr)
(g_free) (_ptr);
} while (0) ;

Convert the VIR_ALLOC family of APIs with use of the g_malloc family of
APIs. Use of VIR_ALLOC related functions should be incrementally phased
out over time, allowing return value checks to be dropped. Use of
VIR_FREE should be replaced with auto-cleanup whenever possible.
We previously used the 'calloc-posix' gnulib module because mingw does
not set errno to ENOMEM on failure.

The functions are left returning an "int" to avoid an immediate
big-bang cleanup. They'll simply never return anything other
than 0, except for virInsertN which can still return an error
if the requested insertion index is out of range. Interestingly
in that case, the _QUIET function would none the less report
an error.

The OOM handling requires special build time options which we never
enable in our CI. Even once enabled the tests are incredibly slow and
typically require manual inspection of the results to weed out false
positives.
Since there was previous agreement to switch to abort on OOM in libvirt
code, there's no point continuing to keep the unused OOM testing code.

VIR_AUTODISPOSE_STR is similar to VIR_AUTOFREE(char *) but uses
virDispose for clearing of the stored string.
This patch also refactors VIR_DISPOSE to use the new helper which is
used for the new macro.

All of the ones being removed are pulled in by internal.h. The only
exception is sanlock which expects the application to include <stdint.h>
before sanlock's headers, because sanlock prototypes use fixed width
int, but they don't include stdint.h themselves, so we have to leave
that one in place.

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.
