Description
When I try running library on Alpine Linux or Ubuntu it fails, because alloca is not found. If it's possible - we should remove it. If you agree, let me know - I'll make PR.

Research direction
Start by locating the alloca usage in the C sources and checking how the Lua LDAP binding builds on Alpine Linux and Ubuntu. Confirm the failure in those environments, then determine whether the old API can be removed without breaking the binding. Done means the library no longer fails because alloca is unavailable.
