Move our implementation of strdup(3) out of compat/nedmalloc/ and
allow it to be used independently from USE_NED_ALLOCATOR. The
original nedmalloc doesn't come with strdup() and doesn't need it.
Only _users_ of nedmalloc need it, which was added when we imported
it to our compat/ hierarchy.
This reduces the difference of our copy of nedmalloc from the
original, making it easier to update, and allows for easier testing
and reusing of our version of strdup().

With GCC 6, the strdup() function is declared with the "nonnull"
attribute, stating that it is not allowed to pass a NULL value as
parameter.
In nedmalloc()'s reimplementation of strdup(), Postel's Law is heeded
and NULL parameters are handled gracefully. GCC 6 complains about that
now because it thinks that NULL cannot be passed to strdup() anyway.
Because the callers in this project of strdup() must be prepared to
call any implementation of strdup() supplied by the platform, so it
is pointless to pretend that it is OK to call it with NULL.
Remove the conditional based on NULL-ness of the input; this
squelches the warning. Check the return value of malloc() instead
to make sure we actually got the memory to write to.
See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/porting_to.html for details.

Some code in nedmalloc is indented in a funny way that could be
misinterpreted as if a line after a for loop was included in the loop
body, when it is not.
GCC 6 complains about this in DEVELOPER=YepSure mode.

When we already know the length of a string (e.g., because
we just malloc'd to fit it), it's nicer to use memcpy than
strcpy, as it makes it more obvious that we are not going to
overflow the buffer (because the size we pass matches the
size in the allocation).
This also eliminates calls to strcpy, which make auditing
the code base harder.

Sparse issues many "Using plain integer as NULL pointer" warnings
while checking nedmalloc.c (at least 98 such warnings before giving
up due to "too many warnings"). In addition, sparse issues some
"non-ANSI function declaration" type warnings for the symbols
'win32_getcurrentthreadid', 'malloc_stats' and 'malloc_footprint'.
In order to suppress the NULL pointer warnings, rather than replace
all uses of '0' as a null pointer representation with NULL, we add
-Wno-non-pointer-null to SPARSE_FLAGS while checking nedmalloc.c.
In order to suppress the "non-ANSI function declaration" warnings,
we simply include the missing 'empty parameter list' prototype (void)
in the function declarations.

On MinGW, GCC 4.7.2 complains about
operation on 'p->m[end]' may be undefined
Fix this by replacing the faulty lines with those of 69825ca from

Nedmalloc's source code has a cute #define construct to avoid inserting
an if() statement, because that might interact badly with enclosing if()
statements. However, GCC > 4 complains with a "warning: value computed
is not used". So we cast the result to "void".
GCC also does not understand the Visual C++ specific pragmas, so we need
to disable them for MinGW.
We need to include malloc.h on Windows even if we happen to compile the
stuff as a MinGW program. Otherwise the function declaration of alloca()
is missing.

The standard allocator on Windows is pretty bad prior
to Windows Vista, and nedmalloc is better than the
modified dlmalloc provided with newer versions of the
MinGW libc.
NedMalloc stats in Git
----------------------
All results are the best result out of 3 runs. The
benchmarks have been done on different hardware, so
the repack times are not comparable.
These benchmarks are all based on 'git repack -adf'
on the Linux kernel.
