libc: Fix alphasort() signature (and implementation).
The declaration for alphasort() in <dirent.h> used the deprecated: int alphasort(const void*, const void*); while both Posix and GLibc use instead: int alphasort(const struct dirent** a, const struct dirent** b); See: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/alphasort.html This patch does the following: - Update the declaration to match Posix/GLibc - Get rid of the upstream BSD code which isn't compatible with the new signature. - Implement a new trivial alphasort() with the right signature, and ensure that it uses strcoll() instead of strcmp(). - Remove Bionic-specific #ifdef .. #else .. #endif block in dirent_test.cpp which uses alphasort(). Even through strcoll() currently uses strcmp(), this does the right thing in the case where we decide to update strcoll() to properly implement locale-specific ordered comparison.
