Colin Hogben f9b6b37cf6 py: Fix wrong assumption that m_renew will not move if shrinking
In both parse.c and qstr.c, an internal chunking allocator tidies up
by calling m_renew to shrink an allocated chunk to the size used, and
assumes that the chunk will not move.  However, when MICROPY_ENABLE_GC
is false, m_renew calls the system realloc, which does not guarantee
this behaviour.  Environments where realloc may return a different
pointer include:

(1) mbed-os with MBED_HEAP_STATS_ENABLED (which adds a wrapper around
malloc & friends; this is where I was hit by the bug);

(2) valgrind on linux (how I diagnosed it).

The fix is to call m_renew_maybe with allow_move=false.
