The following commit breaks the code of the function palette_destroy().
http://git.kernel.org/?p=virt/kvm/qemu-kvm.git;a=commit;h=e31e3694afef58ba191cbcc6875ec243e5971268
The broken code causes a severe memory leak of 'VncPalette' structures
because it never frees anything:
70 void palette_destroy(VncPalette *palette)
71 {
72 if (palette == NULL) {
73 qemu_free(palette);
74 }
75 }
Version 2 of the patch calls qemu_free() unconditionally.

This allow to use palette on the stack instead of always
allocating them.

We now that the palette will never have more than 256
elements. Let's use a pool to reduce malloc calls.

Profiling with callgrind seems to show that a lot of time is spent
in the palette code (mostly due to memory allocation and qdict to int
conversion).
This patch adds a VncPalette implementation. The palette is stored
in a hash table, like qdict, but which does way less memory allocations,
and doesn't suffer from the QObject overhead.
