-ok utility_name [argument ...] ;
The -ok primary shall be equivalent to -exec, except that the use
of a <plus-sign> to punctuate the end of the primary expression
need not be supported, and find shall request affirmation of the
invocation of utility_name using the current file as an argument
by writing to standard error as described in the STDERR section. If
the response on standard input is affirmative, the utility shall be
invoked. Otherwise, the command shall not be invoked and the value
of the -ok operand shall be false.

Split the common part into a function, to be reused.
The tail call is optimized, meaning now mmin/mtime just prepare arguments
and jump into the common code, thus near zero overhead.
This reduces code size slightly, e.g. on x86_64:
text data bss dec hex filename
4806 0 0 4806 12c6 findutils/find.o.orig
4782 0 0 4782 12ae findutils/find.o
Of course, the savings are even greater when implementing atime/ctime
variants.

Back in 2007, commit 0c97c9d437 ("'simple' error message functions by
Loic Grenie") introduced bb_simple_perror_msg() to allow for a lower
overhead call to bb_perror_msg() when only a string was being printed
with no parameters. This saves space for some CPU architectures because
it avoids the overhead of a call to a variadic function. However there
has never been a simple version of bb_error_msg(), and since 2007 many
new calls to bb_perror_msg() have been added that only take a single
parameter and so could have been using bb_simple_perror_message().
This changeset introduces 'simple' versions of bb_info_msg(),
bb_error_msg(), bb_error_msg_and_die(), bb_herror_msg() and
bb_herror_msg_and_die(), and replaces all calls that only take a
single parameter, or use something like ("%s", arg), with calls to the
corresponding 'simple' version.
Since it is likely that single parameter calls to the variadic functions
may be accidentally reintroduced in the future a new debugging config
option WARN_SIMPLE_MSG has been introduced. This uses some macro magic
which will cause any such calls to generate a warning, but this is
turned off by default to avoid use of the unpleasant macros in normal
circumstances.
This is a large changeset due to the number of calls that have been
replaced. The only files that contain changes other than simple
substitution of function calls are libbb.h, libbb/herror_msg.c,
libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/xfuncs_printf.c. In miscutils/devfsd.c,
networking/udhcp/common.h and util-linux/mdev.c additonal macros have
been added for logging so that single parameter and multiple parameter
logging variants exist.
The amount of space saved varies considerably by architecture, and was
found to be as follows (for 'defconfig' using GCC 7.4):
Arm: -92 bytes
MIPS: -52 bytes
PPC: -1836 bytes
x86_64: -938 bytes
Note that for the MIPS architecture only an exception had to be made
disabling the 'simple' calls for 'udhcp' (in networking/udhcp/common.h)
because it made these files larger on MIPS.

Redundant help texts (one which only repeats the description)
are deleted.
Descriptions and help texts are trimmed.
Some config options are moved, even across menus.
No config option _names_ are changed.

invarg(a,b) - "invalid argument", but how a and b enter the message?
invarg_1_to_2(a,b) is somewhat easier to read: "invalid argument 'a' to 'b'"
Audit of usage revealed a number of bad uses, with too long messages.

Regression added in commit 14158b4127
"find: add optional support for '-exec ... {} +'"
This commit causes find to exit on the first path argument that was not
found, which breaks existing scripts and is incompatible to other
implementations.
Instead of exiting on the first failure, return EXIT_FAILURE at the end
if any error occurred.

The find utility uses a hardcoded value of 32 * 1024 as the limit of
the command-line length when calling 'find -exec ... {} +'. This results
in over 4 times more execve() calls than in coreutils' find.
This patch uses the limit defined in system headers.
Based on the patch by Bartosz Golaszewski <bartekgola@gmail.com>.
