Subject: [PATCH] calloc: Use calloc() at most places

This modifies most of the places we do some form of:

  X = malloc(Y * Z);

to use calloc(Y, Z) instead.

Among other issues, this fixes:
  - allocation of integer overflow in grub_png_decode_image_header()
    reported by Chris Coulson,
  - allocation of integer overflow in luks_recover_key()
    reported by Chris Coulson,
  - allocation of integer overflow in grub_lvm_detect()
    reported by Chris Coulson.

Fixes: CVE-2020-14308
