Fix memory handling in strxfrm_l [BZ #16009]

[Modified from the original email by Siddhesh Poyarekar]

This patch solves bug #16009 by implementing an additional path in
strxfrm that does not depend on caching the weight and rule indices.

In detail the following changed:

* The old main loop was factored out of strxfrm_l into the function
do_xfrm_cached to be able to alternativly use the non-caching version
do_xfrm.

* strxfrm_l allocates a a fixed size array on the stack. If this is not
sufficiant to store the weight and rule indices, the non-caching path is
taken. As the cache size is not dependent on the input there can be no
problems with integer overflows or stack allocations greater than
__MAX_ALLOCA_CUTOFF. Note that malloc-ing is not possible because the
definition of strxfrm does not allow an oom errorhandling.

* The uncached path determines the weight and rule index for every char
and for every pass again.

* Passing all the locale data array by array resulted in very long
parameter lists, so I introduced a structure that holds them.

* Checking for zero src string has been moved a bit upwards, it is
before the locale data initialization now.

* To verify that the non-caching path works correct I added a test run
to localedata/sort-test.sh & localedata/xfrm-test.c where all strings
are patched up with spaces so that they are too large for the caching path.

(cherry picked from commit 0f9e585480edcdf1e30dc3d79e24b84aeee516fa)

+	[BZ #16009]
+	* string/strxfrm_l.c (STRXFRM): Allocate fixed size cache for
+	weights and rules. Use do_xfrm_cached if data fits in cache,
+	do_xfrm otherwise.  Moved former main loop to...
+	* (do_xfrm_cached): New function.
+	* (do_xfrm): Non-caching version of do_xfrm_cached. Uses
+	find_idx, find_position and stack_push.
+	* (find_idx): New function.
+	* (find_position): Likewise.
+	* localedata/sort-test.sh: Added test run for do_xfrm.
+	* localedata/xfrm-test.c (main): Added command line option
+	-nocache to run the test with strings that are too large for
+	the STRXFRM cache.
