@dcristoloveanu I'd be happy to merge these changes in for you as it is
certainly better for the library not to segfault if a malloc fails.
However, I do wonder if there are numerous places where these methods are
currently called and expected to always be non-NULL. For example, `pn_buffer`
allocations are used liberally and rarely checked for validity before being
used, so unless I'm mistaken, it seems like we will just push the segfault up
the call chain?
