When add_ds_file_to_ds_file_group fails, the created ds_file_info is not
freed, resulting in this leak:

This can happen if the index fails to build, as in:

  $ ./src/cli/babeltrace2 /home/smarchi/lttng-traces/auto-20191021-162849/ust/uid/1000/64-bit

If add_ds_file_to_ds_file_group is successful, it transfers its
ownership of the ds_file_info object to the ds_file_group, in which case
it should not free it.  But if it fails, the ds_file_info object should
be freed.

This patch introduces the BT_MOVE_REF macro, analogous to C++'s
std::move, for cases like these.  It passes the value of a pointer
variable to a function, while setting that variable to NULL.  This is
meant to be used when the caller transfers its owning reference to the
callee.
