With the spatch to use GLib memory functions a lot of error paths were
removed. This causes an unused variable warning, so drop in a further
patch to remove the unused variable.
Add an spatch/coccinelle file to replace all free/malloc/realloc calls
with g_free/g_malloc/g_realloc. It also removes all the error code paths
that we do not need to check anymore.
NBIS is pretty complicated to update, seeing as we've made quite a few
changes to get it to compile as a library. With those scripts, we can
easily trim headers to remove functions we don't use, rename global
variables, and do any sort of fixups that are necessary right now.
In the future, removing unused NBIS functions might be as easy as
updating that script, re-running it, and pushing the changes.
Note that remove-function.lua is a very crude parser that only supports
NBIS' style of declaration, with the return type on the same line as the
function name. I wouldn't recommend trying to use it in another project.
Callcatcher (https://github.com/caolanm/callcatcher) was also used to
remove additional unused functions.
