Generalize varobj iterator
This patch generalizes varobj iterator, in a python-independent way.
Note varobj_item is still a typedef of PyObject, we can only focus on
API changes, and leave the data type changes to the next patch. As a
result, we include "varobj-iter.h" after the typedef of PyObject in
varobj.c, but it is an intermediate state. Finally, varobj-iter.h is
independent of PyObject.
This change is helpful to move some python-related code out of
varobj.c.
V2:
- Fix a missing cleanup.
- Fix typos.
- Use XNEW.
- Check against NULL explicitly.
- Update copyright year for new added files.
V3:
- Call PyGILState_Ensure before Py_XDECREF.
- Use CPYCHECKER_STEALS_REFERENCE_TO_ARG.
- Code indentation.
V4:
- use varobj_ensure_python_env instead of PyGILState_Ensure.
