The result is the same but takes less code.
Note that __execvpe calls getenv which calls __strchrnul so even
using static output the size of the executable won't grow.

Make code slightly smaller.
"file" should not be long and it should fit in NAME_MAX so
this code would be faster only rarely.

Patch 1 looks ok, but patch 2 here is contrary to the direction I want
to take things in musl. Using strnlen everywhere that excess length is
an error is an idiom I'm trying to adopt all over. Here there's no
serious practical impact either way (size difference is tiny, input
string is not untrusted), but I still prefer use of the idiom.

Fine for me to drop 2/2, I reached this code trying to workaround a
bug in binutils (I have a Fedora 29 with binutils 2.31 where each
static executable produced by musl were crashing).
Why not updating https://wiki.musl-libc.org/coding-style.html ?
