[PATCH v2 1/3] mem-pool: add convenience functions for xstrdup and xstrndup

["Elijah Newren via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

fast-import had a special mem_pool_xstrdup() convenience function that I
want to be able to use from the new merge algorithm I am writing.  Move
it from fast-import to mem-pool, and also add a mem_pool_xstrndup()
while at it that I also want to use.
