generator: Add validation check for return values that are arrays

When a C function returns an array, we need to be able to determine its
length. This is done either through a parameter to that function, or
because the array is null-terminated. If we don't know about either of
those, we print out a warning and fail the validation for the return
value. This means the corresponding method will not be generated.

This fixes a crash when trying to generate a method for which this
information is missing.

This wasn't a problem until now because the parser doesn't handle array
return values, so they were always handled through fix-ups. But now we
can get a GAPI XML converted from GIR which contains the "array"
attribute for a return value but no other information.
