core: use readdir(3) with glibc, and associated cleanup

Starting with glibc-2.23 (i.e. what's in Fedora 25), readdir_r(3)
is marked as deprecated. Specifically the function decl in <dirent.h>
has the deprecated attribute, and now warnings are thrown during the
compile on Fedora 25 builds.

The readdir(_r)(3) man page (on Fedora 25 at least) and World+Dog say
that glibc's readdir(3) is, and always has been, MT-SAFE as long as
only one thread is accessing the directory object returned by opendir().
World+Dog also says there is a potential buffer overflow in readdir_r().
World+Dog suggests that it is preferable to simply use readdir(). There's
an implication that eventually readdir_r(3) will be removed from glibc.
POSIX has, apparently deprecated it in the standard, or even removed it
entirely.

Over and above that, our source near the various uses of readdir(_r)(3)
has a few unsafe uses of strcpy()+strcat().

(AFAIK nobody has looked at the readdir(3) implemenation in *BSD to see
if the same is true on those platforms, and we can't be sure of MacOS
even though we know it's based on *BSD.)
