iconv: Do not use mmap in iconv (the program) (bug 17703)
On current systems, very large files are needed before
mmap becomes beneficial.  Simplify the implementation.

This exposed that inptr was not initialized correctly in
process_fd.  Handling multiple input files resulted in
EFAULT in read because a null pointer was passed.  This
could be observed previously if an input file was not
mappable and was reported as bug 17703.
