security/realloc_reuse.c code does not work

[nishiken]

In realloc_reuse.c, realloc'ed pointer is not stored, and the result would be always [-].
The source code should be like this?:

    char *p = malloc_noinline(ALLOCATION_SIZE);
    char *q = p;
    p = realloc(p, 1024);

hm, that's a weird one. It's actually absolutely legal to let the allocation stay where it is. The block of size ALLOCATION_SIZE very well might simply be enlarged, that would be fine. I'm not sure what the intention of this test was...

@nishiken I agree that looks like a typo. I also agree with @derSteFfi that the test doesn't seem correct. I am fairly convinced for something like that dlmalloc might even be able to expand in place in a way that would fail this test.
