stdlib/test-bz22786: Avoid spurious test failures using alias mappings

On systems without enough random-access memory, stdlib/test-bz22786
will go deeply into swap and time out, even with a substantial
TIMEOUTFACTOR.  This commit adds a facility to construct repeating
strings with alias mappings, so that the requirement for physical
memory, and uses it in stdlib/test-bz22786.
