Subject: [PATCH-next v2] lib: parser: optimize match_NUMER apis to use local array

Memory will be allocated to store substring_t in match_strdup(), which means
the caller of match_strdup() may need to be scheduled out to wait for reclaiming
memory.

Using local array to store substring_t to remove the restriction.

 v1->v2:
   change the name of buffer's length
   use match_strlcpy() to copy string and keep string length check
