g_new(T, n) is neater than g_malloc(sizeof(T) * n). It's also safer, for two reasons. One, it catches multiplication overflowing size_t. Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch more type errors.
This commit only touches allocations with size arguments of the form sizeof(T). Same Coccinelle semantic patchas in commit b45c03f.
