Martin Ågren 7199203937 object_array: add and use object_array_pop()
In a couple of places, we pop objects off an object array `foo` by
decreasing `foo.nr`. We access `foo.nr` in many places, but most if not
all other times we do so read-only, e.g., as we iterate over the array.
But when we change `foo.nr` behind the array's back, it feels a bit
nasty and looks like it might leak memory.

Leaks happen if the popped element has an allocated `name` or `path`.
At the moment, that is not the case. Still, 1) the object array might
gain more fields that want to be freed, 2) a code path where we pop
might start using names or paths, 3) one of these code paths might be
copied to somewhere where we do, and 4) using a dedicated function for
popping is conceptually cleaner.

Introduce and use `object_array_pop()` instead. Release memory in the
new function. Document that popping an object leaves the associated
elements in limbo.

The converted places were identified by grepping for "\.nr\>" and
looking for "--".

Make the new function return NULL on an empty array. This is consistent
with `pop_commit()` and allows the following:

	while ((o = object_array_pop(&foo)) != NULL) {
		// do something
	}

But as noted above, we don't need to go out of our way to avoid reading
`foo.nr`. This is probably more readable:

	while (foo.nr) {
		... o = object_array_pop(&foo);
		// do something
	}

The name of `object_array_pop()` does not quite align with
`add_object_array()`. That is unfortunate. On the other hand, it matches
`object_array_clear()`. Arguably it's `add_...` that is the odd one out,
since it reads like it's used to "add" an "object array". For that
reason, side with `object_array_clear()`.
