Jerry (the command line tool) has been supporting the execution of
multiple script files for long. However, until now, it simply
concatenated all sources into a single source buffer and
parsed/executed them as one unit. Other JS execution tools (e.g.,
jsc, v8) load and execute separate files as separate units -- but
still in the same execution environment. The most significant
effect of this approach is that the `"use strict;"` directive (or
the absence of it) at the beginning of each JS script file takes
effect as expected (i.e., as if the script was executed alone).
Contrarily, the concatenation-based approach forces the strictness
of the first script on all the rest (i.e., if the first script
starts with `"use strict";` the rest is also executed in a strict
environment even if they did not contain the directive, and vice
versa).
This patch makes the jerry command line tool to load/parse/run one
unit at a time.
Side effects:
- As there is no need for separate file read routines that load one
file (a snapshot) or concat multiple (JS sources) anymore, those
routines got merged.
- Both previous read routines used multiple stdio functions
(`fseek`, `ftell`, and `rewind`). This has been simplified to
rely on `fread` only to find out the length of the input.
- This simplification made the above mentioned functions
superfluous in jerry-libc.
- As some error messages had to be touched in this patch, several
more have been beautified to make them more consistent.
- One small change was needed in `jerry_parse` in jerry-core to
allow subsequent parsing of multiple sources (without that, an
assertion was triggered).

Recent changes eliminate the need for `jerry_port_putchar`. As port
API discussions don't make it likely that it will ever be needed
again, this patch removes its declaration from jerry-port.h and its
implementations from the port(s).
The related code in jerry-libc is not needed either: whatever `putc`
(and `puts`) can do, `printf` can do as well.
