src: add reference counter for dynamic datatypes
There are two datatypes are using runtime datatype allocation:
* Concatenations.
* Integer, that require byteorder adjustment.
From the evaluation / postprocess step, transformations are common,
hence expressions may end up fetching (infering) datatypes from an
existing one.
This patch adds a reference counter to release the dynamic datatype
object when it is shared.
The API includes the following helper functions:
* datatype_set(expr, datatype), to assign a datatype to an expression.
This helper already deals with reference counting for dynamic
datatypes. This also drops the reference counter of any previous
datatype (to deal with the datatype replacement case).
* datatype_get(datatype) bumps the reference counter. This function also
deals with nul-pointers, that occurs when the datatype is unset.
* datatype_free() drops the reference counter, and it also releases the
datatype if there are not more clients of it.
Rule of thumb is: The reference counter of any newly allocated datatype
is set to zero.
This patch also updates every spot to use datatype_set() for non-dynamic
datatypes, for consistency. In this case, the helper just makes an
simple assignment.
Note that expr_alloc() has been updated to call datatype_get() on the
datatype that is assigned to this new expression. Moreover, expr_free()
calls datatype_free().
This fixes valgrind reports like this one:

==28352== by 0x109A53: main (main.c:310)
This patch also removes the DTYPE_F_CLONE flag which is broken and not
needed anymore since proper reference counting is in place.
