The actual code changes are a clean backport, but the license file changes needed adapting from the `giflib.md` file in 11u and later to the `THIRD_PARTY_README` file in 8u (now only one copy following [JDK-8338144](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8338144))

This updates the license to credit `openbsd-reallocarray.c` and is updated further by 8238999. I also included changes made by the 5.2.1 update which were missed because 8225487 was missing.
