Check the relevant arguments for != NULL before calling the actual
driver-specific function, so that the driver can safely assume those
arguments are non-NULL. This removes the need to duplicate these
checks in every driver.
Also, do some minor whitespace and consistency improvements.

Also, change one SR_ERR to the more correct SR_ERR_MALLOC, and assign
sr_ctx in the rigol-ds1xx2's hw_init() function, like all the other
drivers do.
Sending an SR_DF_META packet at the start of every stream is not
mandatory; the frontend should ask for what it needs, and any extra
information the driver wants to send will come in due time.

In the case of USB drivers, a driver's dev_acquisition_stop() cannot
simply remove its fd sources from the session and close its devices:
a USB transfer might still be underway, and it needs to be finished
(and its memory freed) properly.
An sr_dev_inst->status value is added: SR_ST_STOPPING, which should
be set when the driver's dev_acquisition_stop() is called, and acts
as a marker for the USB event handler to wind up its operations.
In order for dev_acquisition_stop() to be able to set the sdi status,
however, it needs to be unconstified.
These are used to list the device instances currently known to the driver,
and clear that list.
Drivers that don't necessarily clear their list of instances on every scan,
such as genericdmm, need to provide these to the frontend to keep instance
management sane.
Since probes now live in a struct sr_dev_inst owned by the driver, it
already knows about them. Instead of a frontend telling the driver to
configure probes, all driver now do this just before starting acquisition.
It's obsolete: no frontend ever used it, and neither did libsigrok.
The sdi->status field is only used internally by some drivers, and
should probably be moved to the driver-specific context structs.
This changes the semantics of the init() call as well. That now only
initializes the driver -- an administrative affair, no hardware gets
touched during this call. It returns a standard SR_OK or SR_ERR* code.
The scan() call does a discovery run for devices it knows, and returns
the number found. It can be called at any time.
It was actually used in one way: the session file loaded abused it for
passing in the filename -- something it definitely wasn't intended for.
This now uses the proper way to pass arguments to a driver: the new
SR_HWCAP_SESSIONFILE.
The OLS driver could also use it as an indication of the serial port to
use instead of actively probing all serial ports on the system, but there
wasn't any frontend code that passed in such a parameter, making it
entirely useless. That will soon be handled differently with the new
scan() API call, regardless.
All frontends will have to include <libsigrok/libsigrok.h> from now on.
This header includes proto.h and version.h, both installed from the
distribution into $INCLUDE/libsigrok/ as well.
The only dynamically changed header is now version.h, which has both
libsigrok and libtool compile-time versions in it.
Start/stop acquisition callbacks: Consistently name the 'void *' parameter
cb_data for now. The per-device-instance device pointer is called
'session_dev_id' everywhere for now, but this should be renamed to
something more clear.
Avoid plain malloc()/free() in sr/srd, especially in the API calls.
Also avoid g_malloc*() in favor of g_try_malloc*().
Use g_strdup() instead of strdup() so that we can use g_free()
consistently everywhere.
Exceptions: Stuff that is allocated via other libs (not using glib),
should also be properly free'd using the respective free-ing function
(instead of g_free()). Examples: Stuff allocated by libusb, libftdi, etc.
Also, use sr_err() instead of sr_warn() for actual errors. sr_warn() is
meant for non-fatal/uncritical warnings.
This will come back in some form or another later, but for now
don't clutter the API with non-working stuff. Removing stuff from APIs
is not possible without breaking the API, adding stuff later is simpler.
Use SR_API to mark public API symbols, and SR_PRIV for private symbols.
Variables and functions marked 'static' are private already and don't
need SR_PRIV. However, functions which are not static (because they need
to be used in other libsigrok-internal files) but are also not meant to
be part of the public libsigrok API, must use SR_PRIV.
This uses the 'visibility' feature of gcc (requires gcc >= 4.0).

In the lib, we should only #include "sigrok.h" or "sigrok-internal.h",
but not the (possibly installed and thus different/older versions) via
<sigrok.h> or <sigrok-internal.h>.
Frontends should of course use <sigrok.h> and <sigrok-internal.h>.
