gendwarfksyms: Limit structure expansion Expand each structure type only once per exported symbol. This is necessary to support self-referential structures, which would otherwise result in infinite recursion, and it's sufficient for catching ABI changes. Types defined in .c files are opaque to external users and thus cannot affect the ABI. Consider type definitions in .c files to be declarations to prevent opaque types from changing symbol versions.

gendwarfksyms: use preferred form of sizeof for allocation The preferred form is to use the variable being allocated to, rather than explicitly supplying a type name which might become stale. Also do this for memset.
