Standardize on "initialize".

* find/exec.c (initialise_wd_for_exec): rename to
initialize_wd_for_exec, since "initialize" is the preferred form
even in UK spelling (the OED says "initialise" is a variant).
Update callers (it's a static function).  Update spelling in
comments.
* find/find.c (main): Fix missing "to" in error message and update
"initialise" to "initialize".  Update comment too.
* find/ftsfind.c (main): Update spelling in error message.
* lib/listfile.c (print_name_with_quoting): spelling change in
comment.
* find/tree.c (init_pred_perf): Likewise.
* lib/extendbuf.c (extendbuf): Likewise.
* lib/splitstring.h: Likewise.
* find/print.c (format_date): Likewise.
* doc/find-maint.texi (Tools): Update spelling.
