The function qsort_s() was introduced with C11 Annex K; it provides the
ability to pass a context pointer to the comparison function, supports
the convention of using a NULL pointer for an empty array and performs a
few safety checks.

Add an implementation based on compat/qsort.c for platforms that lack a
native standards-compliant qsort_s() (i.e. basically everyone).  It
doesn't perform the full range of possible checks: It uses size_t
instead of rsize_t and doesn't check nmemb and size against RSIZE_MAX
because we probably don't have the restricted size type defined.  For
the same reason it returns int instead of errno_t.
