Previously, callers of the merge-ort API could have passed an uninitialized value for struct merge_result *result. However, we want to check result to see if it has cached renames from a previous merge that we can reuse; such values would be found behind result->priv. However, if result->priv is uninitialized, attempting to access behind it will give a segfault. So, we need result->priv to be NULL (which will be the case if the caller does a memset(&result, 0)), or be written by a previous call to the merge-ort machinery. Documenting this requirement may help, but despite being the person who introduced this requirement, I still missed it once and it did not fail in a very clear way and led to a long debugging session. Add a _properly_initialized field to merge_result; that value will be 0 if the caller zero'ed the merge_result, it will be set to a very specific value by a previous run by the merge-ort machinery, and if it's uninitialized it will most likely either be 0 or some value that does not match the specific one we'd expect allowing us to throw a much more meaningful error.
