glob: Simplify the interface for the GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC callback gl_readdir

Previously, application code had to set up the d_namlen member if
the target supported it, involving conditional compilation.  After
this change, glob will use the length of the string in d_name instead
of d_namlen to determine the file name length.  All glibc targets
provide the d_type and d_ino members, and setting them as needed for
gl_readdir is straightforward.

Changing the behavior with regards to d_ino is left to a future
cleanup.

+	glob: Simplify and document the interface for the GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC
+	callback function gl_readdir.
+	* posix/glob.c (NAMELEN, CONVERT_D_NAMLEN): Remove.
+	(CONVERT_DIRENT_DIRENT64): Use strcpy instead of memcpy.
+	(glob_in_dir): Remove len.  Use strdup instead of malloc and
+	memcpy to copy the name.
+	* manual/pattern.texi (Calling Glob): Document requirements for
+	implementations of the gl_readdir callback function.
+	* manual/examples/mkdirent.c: New example.
+	* posix/bug-glob2.c (my_readdir): Set d_ino to 1 unconditionally,
+	per the manual guidance.
+	* posix/tst-gnuglob.c (my_readdir): Likewise.

-This is a GNU extension.
+An implementation of @code{gl_readdir} needs to initialize the following
+members of the @code{struct dirent} object:
+
+@table @code
+@item d_type
+This member should be set to the file type of the entry if it is known.
+Otherwise, the value @code{DT_UNKNOWN} can be used.  The @code{glob}
+function may use the specified file type to avoid callbacks in cases
+where the file type indicates that the data is not required.
+
+@item d_ino
+This member needs to be non-zero, otherwise @code{glob} may skip the
+current entry and call the @code{gl_readdir} callback function again to
+retrieve another entry.
+
+@item d_name
+This member must be set to the name of the entry.  It must be
+null-terminated.
+@end table
+
+The example below shows how to allocate a @code{struct dirent} object
+containing a given name.
+
+@smallexample
+@include mkdirent.c.texi
+@end smallexample
+
+The @code{glob} function reads the @code{struct dirent} members listed
+above and makes a copy of the file name in the @code{d_name} member
+immediately after the @code{gl_readdir} callback function returns.
+Future invocations of any of the callback functions may dealloacte or
+reuse the buffer.  It is the responsibility of the caller of the
+@code{glob} function to allocate and deallocate the buffer, around the
+call to @code{glob} or using the callback functions.  For example, an
+application could allocate the buffer in the @code{gl_readdir} callback
+function, and deallocate it in the @code{gl_closedir} callback function.
+
+The @code{gl_readdir} member is a GNU extension.
