Remove exit_if_null().
Replace with g_return_if_fail(), g_return_val_if_fail(), etc. We
shouldn't exit() from a shared library anyway.
Also, this patch makes gschem *not* crash in a bunch of places where
it doesn't really make sense to just give up.

Title:
libgeda calls exit()
Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Hello,
I am working on the Debian package for geda, when I ran lintian on
the package, I got this:
libgeda38: shlib-calls-exit usr/lib/libgeda.so.38.0.0
The listed shared library calls the C library exit() or _exit()
functions.
In the case of an error, the library should instead return an
appropriate error code to the calling program which can then determine
how to handle the error, including performing any required clean-up.
I am not sure if this is a real issue or not, since libgeda is most
probably only used by the tools in geda. So I though of bringing this
up here for you to decide.
