While reviewing proposed VIR_STRDUP conversions, I've already noticed
several places that do:

if (str && VIR_STRDUP(dest, str) < 0)

which can be simplified by allowing str to be NULL (something that
strdup() doesn't allow).  Meanwhile, code that wants to ensure a
non-NULL dest regardless of the source can check for <= 0.

Also, make it part of the VIR_STRDUP contract that macro arguments
are evaluated exactly once.

* src/util/virstring.h (VIR_STRDUP, VIR_STRDUP_QUIET, VIR_STRNDUP)
(VIR_STRNDUP_QUIET): Improve contract.
* src/util/virstring.c (virStrdup, virStrndup): Change return
conventions.
* docs/hacking.html.in: Document this.
* HACKING: Regenerate.
