This off-by-one was clobbering the stack since introduced in a803c0db4d.
However it only set one bit, and that generally appears to have been set
already, so this rarely affected anything. But when it did, it affected
a pointer, causing a segfault.
This is a small helper function which sends the SR_DF_HEADER packet that
drivers usually emit in their hw_dev_acquisition_start() API callback.
It simplifies and shortens the hw_dev_acquisition_start() functions
quite a bit.
It also simplifies the input modules which send an SR_DF_HEADER packet, too.
This patch also automatically removes some unneeded malloc/free in some
drivers for the 'packet' and 'header' structs used for SR_DF_HEADER.
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.
ols driver used to probe a series of available serial ports obtained
by regexp matching of common serial port names.
There are a number of problems with this approach:
1. It will probe all serial devices, including devices that do not
like to be probed, potentially causing them to act up.
2. It will try to probe serial ports which may already be opened in
other applications for other purposes.
3. It assumes the naming of the serial ports is set in stone, and
creates an unnecessary OS-specific list.
4. It produces unnecessary debug output even when an OLS device is
not connected.
5. etc...
Do not implicitly probe serial ports. Only probe the port specified
by the frontend, if any; otherwise, just quit.
Also get rid of all functionality in serial.c which was designed
specifically for random probing.

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.
