Code cleanup to get fewer reallocs() during execution.

- Changed TABLE->alias to String to get fewer reallocs when alias are used.
- Preallocate some buffers

Changed some String->c_ptr() -> String->ptr() when \0 is not needed.
Fixed wrong usage of String->ptr() when we need a \0 terminated string.
Use my_strtod() instead of my_atof() to avoid having to add \0 to string.
c_ptr() -> c_ptr_safe() to avoid warnings from valgrind.
