gvariant: Rework array iteration in g_variant_format_string_scan_type()

Browse Source 
This introduces no functional changes. Switch from incrementing a
pointer to incrementing a counter and using array indexing.

This squashes a scan-build false positive, where it can’t choose which
of `dest` and `new` ‘own’ the newly allocated memory, so it kind of
assumes both do, and then warns there’s a potential leak of `dest` when
the function returns. In actual fact, ownership of the memory is
returned via `new`.

Partly this might be masked through use of the `G_VARIANT_TYPE` macro,
which the following commit will address.
