Use the same "child of tal object" trick to mark things "notleak".
That simplifies things and means we don't have to track them being
reallocated.

Rather than reaching into data structures, let them register their own
callbacks. This avoids us having to expose "memleak_remove_xxx"
functions, and call them manually.
Under the hood, this is done by having a specially-named tal child of
the thing we want to assist, containing the callback.

`make update-mocks` is usually run in DEVELOPER mode, but then it includes
definitions for functions which aren't declared in non-DEVELOPER mode.
We hacked this in a few places, but it's fragile, and worst, now we
have EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES as well, it's complex.
Instead, declare developer-only functions (but don't define them).
This is a bit more awkward if you accidentally use one in
non-DEVELOPER code (link error rather than compile error), but makes
autogenerating test mocks much easier.

Christian and I both unwittingly used it in form:
*tal_arr_expand(&x) = tal(x, ...)
Since '=' isn't a sequence point, the compiler can (and does!) cache
the value of x, handing it to tal *after* tal_arr_expand() moves it
due to tal_resize().
The new version is somewhat less convenient to use, but doesn't have
this problem, since the assignment is always evaluated after the
resize.

We do this a lot, and had boutique helpers in various places. So add
a more generic one; for convenience it returns a pointer to the new
end element.
I prefer the name tal_arr_expand to tal_arr_append, since it's up to
the caller to populate the new array entry.

We want to exclude the child from being entered into the htable:
if we wanted the parent we could do this outside the loop.

memleak can't see into htables, as it overloads unused pointer bits.
And it can't see into intmap, since they use malloc (it only looks for tal
pointers).

It no longer has any effect on tal_len(), but it *does* give file and line
of allocations which is much nicer for tracking memory leaks!

In several places we use low-level tal functions because we want the
label to be something other than the default. ccan/tal is adding
tal_*_label so replace them and shim it for now.

tal_count() is used where there's a type, even if it's char or u8, and
tal_bytelen() is going to replace tal_len() for clarity: it's only needed
where a pointer is void.
We shim tal_bytelen() for now.

Two changes:
- Fixed the function signature of noleak_ to match in both
configurations
- Added memleak.o to linker for tests
Generating the stubs for the unit tests doesn't really work since the
stubs are checked in an differ between the two configurations, so
adding memleak to the linker fixes that, by not requiring stubs to be
generated in the first place.

In particular, the pay command attaches all kinds of stuff to the
struct command; they're not really a leak, since commands expire.

This is not a child of cmd, since they have independent lifetimes, but
we don't want to noleak them all, since it's only the one currently in
progress (and its children) that we want to exclude.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
It's a single, full-lifetime allocation; make sure we only exclude that
one, though this is fragile: tests will break if it moves.

We use the tal notifiers to attach a `backtrace` object on every
allocation.
This also means moving backtrace_state from log.c into lightningd.c, so
we can hand it to memleak_init().

This is a primitive mark-and-sweep-style garbage detector. The core is
in common/ for later use by subdaemons, but for now it's just lightningd.
We initialize it before most other allocations.
We walk the tal tree to get all the pointers, then search the `ld`
object for those pointers, recursing down. Some specific helpers are
required for hashtables (which stash bits in the unused pointer bits,
so won't be found).
There's `notleak()` for annotating things that aren't leaks: things
like globals and timers, and other semi-transients.
