Add struct scratch_buffer and its internal helper functions

These will be used from NSS modules, so they have to be exported.

+#define _SCRATCH_BUFFER_H
+
+/* Scratch buffers with a default stack allocation and fallback to
+   heap allocation.  It is expected that this function is used in this
+   way:
+
+     struct scratch_buffer tmpbuf;
+     scratch_buffer_init (&tmpbuf);
+
+     while (!function_that_uses_buffer (tmpbuf.data, tmpbuf.length))
+       if (!scratch_buffer_grow (&tmpbuf))
+	 return -1;
+
+     scratch_buffer_free (&tmpbuf);
+     return 0;
+
+   The allocation functions (scratch_buffer_grow,
+   scratch_buffer_grow_preserve, scratch_buffer_set_array_size) make
+   sure that the heap allocation, if any, is freed, so that the code
+   above does not have a memory leak.  The buffer still remains in a
+   state that can be deallocated using scratch_buffer_free, so a loop
+   like this is valid as well:
+
+     struct scratch_buffer tmpbuf;
+     scratch_buffer_init (&tmpbuf);
+
+     while (!function_that_uses_buffer (tmpbuf.data, tmpbuf.length))
+       if (!scratch_buffer_grow (&tmpbuf))
+	 break;
+
+     scratch_buffer_free (&tmpbuf);
+
+   scratch_buffer_grow and scratch_buffer_grow_preserve are guaranteed
+   to grow the buffer by at least 512 bytes.  This means that when
+   using the scratch buffer as a backing store for a non-character
+   array whose element size, in bytes, is 512 or smaller, the scratch
+   buffer only has to grow once to make room for at least one more
+   element.
