Poison XNEW and friends for types that should use new/delete
This patch (finally!) makes it so that trying to use XNEW with a type
that requires "new" will cause a compilation error. The criterion I
initially used to allow a type to use XNEW (which calls malloc in the
end) was std::is_trivially_constructible, but then realized that gcc 4.8
did not have it. Instead, I went with:
using IsMallocatable = std::is_pod<T>;
which is just a bit more strict, which doesn't hurt. A similar thing is
done for macros that free instead of allocated, the criterion is:
using IsFreeable = gdb::Or<std::is_trivially_destructible<T>, std::is_void<T>>;
Trying to use XNEW on a type that requires new will result in an error
like this:

Generated-code-wise, it adds one more function call (xnew<T>) when using
XNEW and building with -O0, but it all goes away with optimizations
enabled.
