Detect and replace bad allocation patterns
Adds a pre-commit hook for detecting and replacing occurrences of `g_malloc()` and `wmem_alloc()` with `g_new()` and `wmem_new()`, to improve the readability of Wireshark's code, and occurrences of `g_malloc(sizeof(struct myobj) * foo)` with `g_new(struct myobj, foo)` to prevent integer overflows Also fixes all existing occurrences across the codebase.
