The "head -c BYTES" option is non-portable (not in POSIX[1]). Change such invocations to use the test_copy_bytes wrapper added in 48860819e8 ("t9300: factor out portable "head -c" replacement", 2016-06-30).
This fixes a test added in 9d2e330b17 ("ewah_read_mmap: bounds-check mmap reads", 2018-06-14), which has been breaking t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh on OpenBSD since 2.18.0. The OpenBSD ports already have a similar workaround after their upgrade to 2.18.0[2].
I have not tested this on IRIX, but according to 4de0bbd898 ("t9300: use perl "head -c" clone in place of "dd bs=1 count=16000" kluge", 2010-12-13) this invocation would have broken things there too.
Also, change a valgrind-specific codepath in test-lib.sh to use this wrapper. Given where valgrind runs I don't think this would ever become a portability issue in practice, but it's easier to just use the wrapper than introduce some exception for the "make test-lint" check being added here.
