Speed updates

create generic macros for allocating/freeing structures.

remove one more slow GMemChunk and replace it with a simple linked list

~4% speed improvement in my tests.

the allocated data is never freed.   this may be a problem if ethereal is
ever supported on a platform lacking resource tracking but makes the
implementation faster and simpler.
