Open-code isprint(c) and isspace(c)
We don't call setlocale, thus we always use C locale.
But libc supports various other locales, and therefore
its ctype interface is general and at times inefficient.
For example, in glibc these macros result in function call,
whereas for e.g. isprint(c) just c >= ' ' && c <= 0x7e
suffices.
By open-coding ctype checks (we have only 4 of them)
we avoid function calls, we get smaller code:
text data bss dec hex filename
245127 680 5708 251515 3d67b strace_old
245019 676 5708 251403 3d60b strace
and we don't link in ctype tables (beneficial for static builds).
