add QSORT_S
Add the macro QSORT_S, a convenient wrapper for qsort_s() that infers
the size of the array elements and dies on error.
Basically all possible errors are programming mistakes (passing NULL as
base of a non-empty array, passing NULL as comparison function,
out-of-bounds accesses), so terminating the program should be acceptable
for most callers.
