<!-- Add a description of the new feature/bug fix. Reference any relevant bugs. -->
While the name of `_gnutls_steal_*` functions was inspired by GLib's `g_steal_*` family, it doesn't seem to be intuitive at first glance,
possibly because of the negative meaning of the word "steal". Let's call it `_gnutls_take_*`, following the example of `TAKE_*` macros in systemd and `Option::take` in Rust.
Also make `_gnutls_take_pointer` takes a `void *` instead of `void **` with necessary type checking with typeof, if available.
