Make foreach macros less syntactically dangerous, and fix some typos in
evidently-never-tested ones. Add missing slist_next_node and
slist_head_node functions. Fix broken dlist_check code. Assorted comment
improvements.
Provide a common implementation of embedded singly-linked and
doubly-linked lists. "Embedded" in the sense that the nodes'
next/previous pointers exist within some larger struct; this design
choice reduces memory allocation overhead.
Most of the implementation uses inlineable functions (where supported),
for performance.
Some existing uses of both types of lists have been converted to the new
code, for demonstration purposes. Other uses can (and probably will) be
converted in the future. Since dllist.c is unused after this conversion,
it has been removed.
