fread: improve performance for unbuffered reads
We can use the buffer passed to fread(3) directly in the FILE *.
The buffer needs to be reset before each call to __srefill().
This preserves the expected behavior in all cases.
The change was found originally in OpenBSD and later adopted by NetBSD.
MFC after: 2 weeks
Obtained from: OpenBSD (CVS 1.18)
