xutil: Implement xstrndup without relying on strndup.

Browse source 
Since we need to do this for portability, (some systems don't have a
strndup function), we might as well do it unconditionally. There's
almost no disadvantage to doing so, and this has the advantages of not
requiring a configure-time check nor having two different
implementations, one of which would often be less tested.

Fix configure script to test each compiler warning we want to use.
Implement strndup locally (or call talloc_strndup instead).
Implement getline locally, (look at gnulib).
