I've applied your changes to vcprequest.h in branch 7.0-dev, which is the current development branch. (git still pointed to 6.1-dev as the branch to which changes are applied. This also required iftesting out the destructor definitions in vcprequest.cpp. |

This fixes the following undefined behaviour detected using Valgrind:
This happens when first switching to the "Features" view for a monitor. The cause is a heap allocated
VcpGetRequestlater being deallocated via a pointer to the base classVcpRequest. The fix is to ensure the base class has a virtual destructor. This also exposed that~HaltRequest()etc had no actual implementations (causing a linker error). Mark the subclass destructorsoverridewith adefaultimplementation.While I discovered this as part of #74, it does unfortunately NOT fix that.
