Fix annoying silent crash in builtins.sh under ASan

[JohnoKing]

Under ASan the builtins.sh script silently exits with exit status 1 and no backtrace. After isolating the bug into a simplified script, I managed to reproduce it with an actual stacktrace. Reproducer:

#!/bin/ksh
set -o xtrace  # Shows how far the script goes before crashing
               # (which is inconsistent and system-dependent
               # AFAICT; the ALL_LIBCMD shopt can influence it).
bltin='/opt/ast/bin/basename
/opt/ast/bin/cat
/opt/ast/bin/cp
/opt/ast/bin/cut
/opt/ast/bin/dirname
/opt/ast/bin/getconf
/opt/ast/bin/ln
/opt/ast/bin/mktemp
/opt/ast/bin/mv'  # Feel free to expand this with other commands
                  # from libcmd if you with.
for i in ${bltin}
do ({ PATH=/opt/ast/bin; "${bltin##*/}" --this-option-does-not-exist; } 2>&1)
done

Stacktrace obtained after much effort:

src/lib/libast/port/astconf.c:

• If fp->value and value pointed to the same allocated memory before realloc, avoid memcpy as value now points to freed memory.
• Produce an obvious panic if memory allocation fails.

src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c:

• For correctness, prevent memory leaks by freeing memory in sh_realloc upon failure.

Odd. The builtins.sh script passes without error (silent or otherwise) under ASan on my system.

The PR looks good to me.

[McDutchie]

Actually, I'm not sure if that code should be throwing out of memory errors directly. Elsewhere in astconf.c, error messages (including out of memory) are passed on via a function given as a conferror pointer argument.

[McDutchie]

I no longer think this change is correct. I think the memcpy always needs to happen, otherwise the memory added to the block with realloc is simply going to be left uninitialised if docpy is false.

I'm too tired to reason this out further right now so I'll have another look another day.

[McDutchie]

LGTM now.
