refactor: introduce XFREE_CLEAR()
Unfortunately we cannot indiscriminately replace xfree() with XFREE_CLEAR(), because comparing pointers after freeing them is a common pattern. Example in `tv_list_remove_items()`: xfree(li); if (li == item2) { break; } Instead we can do it selectively/explicitly. ref #1375
