dir.[ch]: replace dir_init() with DIR_INIT

Remove the dir_init() function and replace it with a DIR_INIT
macro. In many cases in the codebase we need to initialize things with
a function for good reasons, e.g. needing to call another function on
initialization. The "dir_init()" function was not one such case, and
could trivially be replaced with a more idiomatic macro initialization
pattern.

The only place where we made use of its use of memset() was in
dir_clear() itself, which resets the contents of an an existing struct
pointer. Let's use the new "memcpy() a 'blank' struct on the stack"
idiom to do that reset.
