Replace strdupa with strdup #15763

Strdupa has potential to be unsafe thanks to the possibly unbound stack
usage. It also generates warnings when compiled on musl. This commit
therefore replaces it with properly checked heap allocation using
strdup.

Fixes #15729

I've created a PR against master branch, however would it be possible to backport this to 5.x as well?

To mark a issue as a release blocker (i.e. needs to be backported), simply reply with the comment @bazel-io flag. I've done so on #15729.
