Add xasprintf to avoid use of undefined pointer values

If asprintf fails for any reason, the contents of the pointer
are undefined. While some platforms set it to NULL, there is no
guarantee that all will.

This change adds a simple wrapper to ensure proper NULL results
on failure.

Added LIBINPUT_PRINTF attribute and the required declaration for it.
