Eliminates a number of allocations, because callers don't need to copy
the strings to a newly allocated buffer only to null-terminate them.
And most callers don't need to have a null-terminated string.

Since we switched from autotools to Meson in commit
94592c14, we don't need to include
`config.h` early to properly enable large file support.  Meson passes
the required macros on the compiler command line instead of defining
them in `config.h`.

This means we can include `config.h` at any time, whenever we want to
check its macros, and there are no ordering constraints.

Reduce heap allocator overhead.

The new method pair() receives an arbitrary name/value pair.  Support
for this is being added to a few decoder plugins.

Pass a callback table to scan_file() and scan_stream(), instead of
returning a tag object.
