[PATCH] Use RING_FOREACH_SAFE in red_channel.c functions which are missing it

[David Gibson <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, both red_channel_pipes_add_type() and
red_channel_pipes_add_empty_msg() use plaing RING_FOREACH() which is not
safe versus removals from the ring within the loop body.

Although it's rare, such a removal can occur in both cases.  In the case
of red_channel_pipes_add_type() we have:
    red_channel_pipes_add_type()
    -> red_channel_client_pipe_add_type()
        -> red_channel_client_push()

And in the case of red_channel_client_pipes_add_empty_msg() we have:
    red_channel_client_pipes_add_empty_msg()
    -> red_channel_client_pipe_add_empty_msg()
        -> red_channel_client_push()

But red_channel_client_push() can cause a removal from the clients ring if
a network error occurs:
    red_channel_client_push()
    -> red_channel_client_send()
        -> red_peer_handle_outgoing()
            -> handler->cb->on_error callback
            =  red_channel_client_default_peer_on_error()
                -> red_channel_client_disconnect()
                    -> red_channel_remove_client()
                        -> ring_remove()

When this error path does occur, the assertion in RING_FOREACH()'s
ring_next() trips, and the process containing the spice server is aborted.
i.e. your whole VM dies, as a result of an unfortunately timed network
error on the spice channel.

Please apply.
