[Libreoffice] Making our Own Banned.h

[Robert Nagy]

Hello,

Well you don't have it any other supported platforms either.
You can't just use macros to use those whenever they are supported,
we would have to walk through the code and convert each by hand.
If we don't do this there is no real point in listing strcpy and friends
in banned.h.
