On Alpine linux, the telemetry_data_autotest was failing for the
test where we had dictionaries embedded in other dictionaries up
to three levels deep. Indications are that this issue is due to
excess data being stored on the stack, so replace stack-allocated
buffer data with dynamically allocated data in the case where we
are doing recursive processing of telemetry data structures into
json.
