These just get in the way of auditing for erroneous usage of strdup and
add a huge irregular surface of "ctf_malloc or malloc? ctf_free or free?
ctf_strdup or strdup?"
ctf_malloc and ctf_free usage has not reliably matched up for many
years, if ever, making the whole game pointless.
Go back to malloc, free, and strdup like everyone else: while we're at
it, fix a bunch of places where we weren't properly checking for OOM.
This changes the interface of ctf_cuname_set and ctf_parent_name_set,
which could strdup but could not return errors (like ENOMEM).
New in v4.

This allocator has the ostensible benefit that it lets us mprotect() the
memory used for CTF storage: but in exchange for this it adds
considerable complexity, since we have to track allocation sizes
ourselves for use at freeing time, note whether the data we are storing
was ctf_data_alloc()ed or not so we know if we can safely mprotect()
it... and while the mprotect()ing has found few bugs, it *has* been the
cause of more than one due to errors in all this tracking leading to us
mprotect()ing bits of the heap and stuff like that.
We are about to start composing CTF buffers from pieces so that we can
do usage-based optimizations on the strtab. This means we need
realloc(), which needs nonportable mremap() and *more* tracking of the
*original* allocation size, and the complexity and bureaucracy of all of
this is just too high for its negligible benefits.
Drop the whole thing and just use malloc() like everyone else. It knows
better than we do when it is safe to use mmap() under the covers,
anyway.
While we're at it, don't leak the entire buffer if ctf_compress_write()
fails to compress it.

* ctf-archive.c (arc_mmap_header): Mark fd as potentially unused.
* ctf-subr.c (ctf_data_protect): Mark both args as potentially unused.

This old Solaris standard allows callers to specify that they are
expecting one particular API and/or CTF file format from the library.

* ctf-subr.c (_libctf_version): Define it.
(ctf_version): New.
include/
* ctf-api.h (ctf_version): New.

The memory-allocation wrappers are simple things to allow malloc
interposition: they are only used inconsistently at present, usually
where malloc debugging was required in the past.
These provide a default implementation that is environment-variable
triggered (initialized on the first call to the libctf creation and
file-opening functions, the first functions people will use), and
a ctf_setdebug()/ctf_getdebug() pair that allows the caller to
explicitly turn debugging off and on. If ctf_setdebug() is called,
the automatic setting from an environment variable is skipped.

* ctf-impl.h: New file.
* ctf-subr.c: New file.

* ctf-api.h (ctf_setdebug): New.
