For lifetime management keep RWBackends in a vector of unique_ptrs.
RWSplitSession keeps the unique_ptrs very private, and provides a vector
of plain pointers for all other interfaces.
This is essentially just a search and replace to change SRWBackend to
RWBackend* and SRWBackendList to PRWBackends, a vector of a raw
pointers. In the next few commits vector<unique_ptr<RWBackend>>
will be used for life time management.
There are a lot of diffs from the global search and replace. Only a few manual
edits had to be done.

Fixed the use of DCBs and sessions in the mock testing framework and
adapted them to the changes done to the objects in question. Extended the
testing utility functions to allow preloading modules as well as making it
possible to only partially initialize the query classifier.
Allocating the session before a DCB guarantees that at no point will a DCB
have a null session. This further clarifies the concept of the session and
also allows the listener reference to be moved there.
Ideally, the session itself would allocate and assign the client DCB but
since the Listener is the only one who does it, it's acceptable for now.
As each connection now immediately gets a session the dummy session is no
longer required. The next step would be to combine parts of the session
and the client DCB into one entity. This would prevent the possibility of
a client DCB with no associated session. Backend DCBs are different as
they can move from one session to another when the persistent connection
pool is in use.
Whenever a client DCB is accepted, a session for it is allocated. This
simplifies the handling of shared data between DCBs by allowing it to be
placed inside the session object. Currently, the data is stashed away in
the client DCB.
More of the DCB initialization is now done in the DCB constructor. This
makes the creation of new DCBs simpler but it can be even simpler. By
passing the file descriptor that the DCB should use into the constructor
almost all of the initialization would be done inside it.
Also removed the unused path member variable.
By doing the actual accepting of the new DCB in the core, the protocol
modules can only do the actual protocol level work. This removes some of
the redundant code that was in the protocol modules.
By storing the reference in the DCB, the two-way dependency between the
listeners and services is severed. Now the services have no direct link to
listeners and after the destruction of a listener it will be freed once
all connections through it have closed.
Due to the fact that a listener itself has a DCB that must point to a
valid listener, a self-reference is stored in the listener DCB. This is
extremely confusing and is only here to keep the code functional until the
DCB part of the listener can be factored out.
Allocating DCB with new allows the use of C++ objects in the DCB
struct. Also the explicit poll field can be replaced by inheriting from
MXB_POLL_DATA.
Modified the functions to use a listener instead of a DCB in the accepting
process. This removes some of the dependenices that the listeners have on
the DCB system.
The value would otherwise be assigned outside of it and in some cases not
at all. Now all DCBs (apart from internal ones) have a valid SERVICE
pointer.
The SERV_LISTENER pointer should not be in the DCBs but in the
session. This way the listener is an attribute of a session instead of a
connection. If this is implemented, the authenticator data can be more
easily shared.
The iteration of listeners is now done via the global list of
listeners. This removes the need to have a service before a listener is
accessed which also reflects how the actual configuration is laid out. It
also guarantees that any results returned by the find functions will be
valid as long as the results are used.
