This change is not mentioned in the ChangeLog.

"Wrapper for".  "to" would be used to introduce a
rationale for the wrapping, like e.g.,
"wrapper to allow frobing ...".  I suggest mentioning cleanups,
like e.g.,:

/* A cleanup wrapper for clear_collection_list.  */

Missing docu.  Ah, found it in patch 4.  (would have been
best merged here).

Thanks for splitting all this up into pieces.  Much appreciated.

However, there's a weird back and forth dance going on between this
patch and patch 4, making the reader dizzy.  :-)  Patch 4 moves
these back to encode_actions...  There's only one caller of
encode_actions in this patch, so it'd be better to leaving encode_actions
as a single function in this patch, and leave the split for one of
the follow ups (possible patch 4), explaining that the split allows
reusing the encode bits without generating the RSP, necessary for
the MI command's implementation.
