[Crash-utility] [PATCH v2] Remove the VOID_PTR facilitator macro

I've been wondering about the intended use of this facilitator macro
for some time and concluded that it is plainly wrong. It should
take a pointer value from a buffer, but what is the use of a pointer
that pointed to something on the target machine?
Since it cannot be meaningfully dereferenced on the host, the only
(arguable) advantage is the ability to do pointer arithmetics on the
variables. This second patch does the correct thing wherever pointer
arithmetics was done, making the actual calculations more explicit.
