Shell syntax is too complicated to detect command substitution and unquoted
operators reliably without implementing much of sh's parser. Therefore, have
sh do this detection.
While changing sh's support anyway, also read input from a pipe instead of
arguments to avoid {ARG_MAX} limits and improve privacy, and output count
and length using 16 instead of 8 digits.
The basic concept is:
execl("/bin/sh", "sh", "-c", "freebsd_wordexp ${1:+\"$1\"} -f "$2",
"", flags & WRDE_NOCMD ? "-p" : "", <pipe with words>);
The WRDE_BADCHAR error is still implemented in libc. POSIX requires us to
fail strings containing unquoted braces with code WRDE_BADCHAR. Since this
is normally not a syntax error in sh, there is still a need for checking
code in libc, we_check().
The new we_check() is an optimistic check that all the characters
<newline> | & ; < > ( ) { }
are quoted. To avoid duplicating too much sh logic, such characters are
permitted when quoting characters are seen, even if the quoting characters
may themselves be quoted. This code reports all WRDE_BADCHAR errors; bad
characters that get past it and are a syntax error in sh return WRDE_SYNTAX.
Although many implementations of WRDE_NOCMD erroneously allow some command
substitutions (and ours even documented this), there appears to be code that
relies on its security (codesearch.debian.net shows quite a few uses).
Passing untrusted data to wordexp() still exposes a denial of service
possibility and a fairly large attack surface.

The old code was exponential in the number of asterisks in the pattern.
However, once a match has been found upto the next asterisk, the previous
asterisks are no longer relevant.
FILES is not used when LIBRARIES_ONLY is set, which is used to build and
install the lib32 sysroot. All of the csu files do quality as "libraries"
for this case so just undefine LIBRARIES_ONLY.
This is still better than the previous realinstall handling as it does
not hook into META_MODE properly.

This partially reverts r270170 for lib/csu/i386 while retaining the
change for using bsd.lib.mk.
These FILES groups could go into lib/csu/Makefile.inc but I've kept them
in the Makefiles for clarity.

both in /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib, thus simplifying the use of modules
from ports, without breaking the compat32 case again.
