[PATCH 0/6] Make trailer_info struct private (plus sequencer cleanup)

NOTE: This series is based on the la/format-trailer-info topic branch (see
its discussion at [1]).

This series is based on the initial series [2], notably the v4 version of patches 17-20 as suggested by Christian [3]. This version addresses the review comments for those patches, namely the splitting up of Patch 19 there into 3 separate patches [4] (as Patches 03-05 here) .

The central idea is to make the trailer_info struct private (that is, move its definition from trailer.h to trailer.c) --- aka the "pimpl" idiom. See the detailed commit message for Patch 05 for the motivation behind the change.

Patch 02 makes sequencer.c a well-behaved trailer API consumer, by making use of the trailer iterator. Patch 01 prepares us for Patch 02. Patch 06 slightly reduces the weight of the API by removing (from the API surface) an unused function.
