David Benjamin a78e6a5ab5 Switch from readdir_r back to readdir. 
readdir and readdir_r have a sad history:
https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Reading_002fClosing-Directory.html
https://womble.decadent.org.uk/readdir_r-advisory.html
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=696

Martin Thomson reports that newer glibcs warn that readdir_r is
deprecated. Especially since this has been banished to libdecrepit
anyway, go ahead and honor that warning. OpenSSL also uses readdir, so
we're no worse than they are.

While I'm here, rewrite this to remove a useless layer of abstraction,
now that we've punted on supporting most platforms here. Also remove the
redundant documentation comment (there's one in the header already).

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
