This patchset main target is to remove alloca usage on glob by
using a specialized dynarray for C strings (struct char_array).

It does not change any glob semantics, only internal glob buffer
management.  It also does not solve the potential stack overflow
due recursive allocation from wildcard in patterns [1] (although
an option would be go to pure dynamic char_array for this case).

[1] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2017-10/msg00056.html

Adhemerval Zanella (8):
  malloc: Add specialized dynarray for C strings
  posix: Use char_array for internal glob dirname
  posix: Remove alloca usage for GLOB_BRACE on glob
  posix: Remove alloca usage on glob dirname
  posix: Use dynarray for globname in glob
  posix: Remove alloca usage on glob user_name
  posix: Use char_array for home_dir in glob
  posix: Remove all alloca usage in glob
