getloadavg: check whether n_name is a pointer, for QNX 6.4.1

* lib/getloadavg.c (getloadavg): Use the strcpy-into-nlist.n_name
code also if ! defined N_NAME_POINTER.
* m4/getloadavg.m4 (gl_GETLOADAVG): Add a link-test for N_NAME_POINTER.
This is required on QNX 6.4.1, where /usr/include/nlist.h exists,
but the n_name member is a 12-byte array.
