The array_list_new2 function, which is externally reachable through
json_object_new_array_ext, does not check if specified initial size
actually fits into memory on 32 bit architectures.

It also allows negative values, which could lead to an overflow on these
architectures as well. I have added test cases for these situations.

While at it, also protect array_list_shrink against too large
empty_slots argument. No test added because it takes a huge length
value, therefore a lot of items within the array, to overflow the
calculation. In theory this affects 64 bit sytems as well, but since the
arraylist API is not supposed to be used by external applications
according to its header file, the call is protected due to int
limitation of json_object_array_shrink.

Also add the json_object_new_array_ext, array_list_new2, and array_list_shrink functions.

If the assignment of stop overflows due to idx and count being
larger than SIZE_T_MAX in sum, out of boundary access could happen.

It takes invalid usage of this function for this to happen, but
I decided to add this check so array_list_del_idx is as safe against
bad usage as the other arraylist functions.

Although it is currently working, it's worth to stick with the stdlib definition to avoid further problems

Add a test that triggers the problem to ensure it stays fixed.

This fix errors that can happen when ingesting very large JSON files
when hitting the maximum heap size of the process.

Arrays can already be sorted with json_object_array_sort() which uses
qsort() of the standard C library. This adds a counterpart using the
bsearch() from C.

Eliminate all uses of bits.h within the json-c code.

array_list_expand_internal needs length, not index.

(The current implementation will fail when adding index 65.)

- uses libc's qsort to sort the arraylist
 - add test in test1.c
