James Youngman fce1865424 Split strings into fields nondestructively.
* lib/splitstring.c: New file; defines splitstring(), which will
non-destructively locate character-separated fields in a string.
* lib/splitstring.h: New file; declares splitstring.
* lib/test_splitstring.c: New file; unit test for splitstring.c.
* lib/nextelem.c: Delete (obsoleted by splitstring.c).
* lib/nextelem.h: Delete (obsoleted by splitstring.h).
* lib/Makefile.am (libfind_a_SOURCES): Add splitstring.c,
splitstring.c.  Remove nextelem.c, nextelem.h.
(check_PROGRAMS): Add test_splitstring.
(TESTS): Add test_splitstring.
(test_splitstring_SOURCES): Sources for the
test_splitstring unit test.
* locate/locate.c: Include splitstring.h rather than nextelem.h.
(dolocate): Use splitstring rather than next_element.  In places
where we need a nul-terminated string, use strndup() to create it.
Convert some space-tab sequences to regular spacing.
* find/parser.c: Include splitstring.h rather than nextelem.h.
(check_path_safety): Use splitstring rather than next_element.
* import-gnulib.config (modules): Depend on the module strndup.
* cfg.mk: Exempt lib/test_splitstring.c from calling
bindtextdomain or set_program_name.

/* Split a string into fields. The string is never modified.
*
* A false return value indicates that there are no more fields.
* Otherwise the next field is at the poisition indicated by *POS and
* has length *LEN.
*
* Set FIRST to true only on the first call for any given value of s.
* *POS and *LEN do not need to be initialised in this case.
* On subsequent calls, these values should be left at the values
* set by the last call.
*
* Any character in SEPARATORS is taken to be a field separator.
* Consecutive field separators are taken to indicate the presence of
* an empty field.
