Rusty Russell 26dda57cc0 utils: make tal_arr_expand safer.
Christian and I both unwittingly used it in form:

	*tal_arr_expand(&x) = tal(x, ...)

Since '=' isn't a sequence point, the compiler can (and does!) cache
the value of x, handing it to tal *after* tal_arr_expand() moves it
due to tal_resize().

The new version is somewhat less convenient to use, but doesn't have
this problem, since the assignment is always evaluated after the
resize.

Rusty Russell 96f05549b2 common/utils.h: add tal_arr_expand helper.
We do this a lot, and had boutique helpers in various places.  So add
a more generic one; for convenience it returns a pointer to the new
end element.

I prefer the name tal_arr_expand to tal_arr_append, since it's up to
the caller to populate the new array entry.

Rusty Russell 5cf34d6618 Remove tal_len, use tal_count() or tal_bytelen().
tal_count() is used where there's a type, even if it's char or u8, and
tal_bytelen() is going to replace tal_len() for clarity: it's only needed
where a pointer is void.

We shim tal_bytelen() for now.
