clear header node hooks upon intrusive container destruction

Description
In intrusive containers, the safe_link and auto_unlink hook types cause boost to reset the hooks to their default constructed state (usually NULL) upon removing an element from a container. That suggests a user could double check that nodes are indeed removed from all containers upon destruction, by checking that the hooks are set to NULL. Unfortunately, the check fails because, unlike all other regular nodes, the hooks of the container header nodes are not reset upon destruction of the container.
I will create a pull request which rectifies this in list, slist, and bstree. I will drop it on top of the develop branch, which has the recent fix to bug #9940.
I believe the change should have no negative impact.
