[PATCH 0/8] virtiofsd: Changed various allocations to GLib functions

[Mahmoud Mandour <ma.mandourr@gmail.com>]

Replaced allocations done using malloc(), calloc(), and realloc()
to their equivalent functions in GLib. 

Memory that is allocated locally and freed when the function exits
are annotated g_autofree so that the deallocation is automatically
handled. Subsequently, I could remove a bunch of free() calls.

Also, tried to keep the semantics of the code as is, but when the 
allocation is a small one, or a crucial one, I replaced the 
NULL-checking mechanisms with glib's functions that crash on error.

This is related to a patch that I had submitted as a part of a 
previous series. The previous patch had some errors. Also, I thought 
that it's better to split the patch into smaller pieces.
