rv: Merge struct rv_monitor_def into struct rv_monitor
Each struct rv_monitor has a unique struct rv_monitor_def associated with
it. struct rv_monitor is statically allocated, while struct rv_monitor_def
is dynamically allocated.
This makes the code more complicated than it should be:
- Lookup is required to get the associated rv_monitor_def from rv_monitor
- Dynamic memory allocation is required for rv_monitor_def. This is
harder to get right compared to static memory. For instance, there is
an existing mistake: rv_unregister_monitor() does not free the memory
allocated by rv_register_monitor(). This is fortunately not a real
memory leak problem, as rv_unregister_monitor() is never called.
Simplify and merge rv_monitor_def into rv_monitor.
