- make extract-unit-protos handle multi-line prototypes - but they need
to be above the implementation
- Prototypes for static functions we use in unit tests should not be in
header files. We generate lib/unitprotos.h for this purpose
- Removed some function wrappers written for unit tests and make them
use UNITTEST function directly.
- Renamed time2str() in the tool to timebuf() since we have the same
name in lib/ and in unit tests they can both be used non-static in a
build.
This reverts commit f95fadd116.

And a few variables around.
There remain cases where the accepted pointer is const, yet the returned
pointer is written to.
Partly addressing (glibc 2.43):
```
* For ISO C23, the functions bsearch, memchr, strchr, strpbrk, strrchr,
strstr, wcschr, wcspbrk, wcsrchr, wcsstr and wmemchr that return
pointers into their input arrays now have definitions as macros that
return a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input argument is
a pointer to a const-qualified type.
```

Note: This patch doesn't aim to add `timeval.h` includes missing from
local headers using `curltime` type. They remain relying on `urldata.h`
being included first. This patch also doesn't delete existing, used
includes already present in local headers (as internal users may rely
on them).

- replace `sendf.h` with `curl_trc.h` where it was included just for it.
- drop unused `curl_trc.h` includes.
- easy: delete obsolete comment about `send.h` include reason.
Also:
- move out `curl_trc.h` include from `sendf.h` and include it directly
in users, where not done already. To flatten the include tree and
to less rely on indirect includes.
- stop including `sendf.h` from other headers, replace it with forward
declaration of `Curl_easy`, as done already elsewhere.

Closes#20027
Before this patch curl used the C preprocessor to override standard
memory allocation symbols: malloc, calloc, strdup, realloc, free.
The goal of these is to replace them with curl's debug wrappers in
`CURLDEBUG` builds, another was to replace them with the wrappers
calling user-defined allocators in libcurl. This solution needed a bunch
of workarounds to avoid breaking external headers: it relied on include
order to do the overriding last. For "unity" builds it needed to reset
overrides before external includes. Also in test apps, which are always
built as single source files. It also needed the `(symbol)` trick
to avoid overrides in some places. This would still not fix cases where
the standard symbols were macros. It was also fragile and difficult
to figure out which was the actual function behind an alloc or free call
in a specific piece of code. This in turn caused bugs where the wrong
allocator was accidentally called.
To avoid these problems, this patch replaces this solution with
`curlx_`-prefixed allocator macros, and mapping them _once_ to either
the libcurl wrappers, the debug wrappers or the standard ones, matching
the rest of the code in libtests.
This concludes the long journey to avoid redefining standard functions
in the curl codebase.
Note: I did not update `packages/OS400/*.c` sources. They did not
`#include` `curl_setup.h`, `curl_memory.h` or `memdebug.h`, meaning
the overrides were never applied to them. This may or may not have been
correct. For now I suppressed the direct use of standard allocators
via a local `.checksrc`. Probably they (except for `curlcl.c`) should be
updated to include `curl_setup.h` and use the `curlx_` macros.
This patch changes mappings in two places:
- `lib/curl_threads.c` in libtests: Before this patch it mapped to
libcurl allocators. After, it maps to standard allocators, like
the rest of libtests code.
- `units`: before this patch it mapped to standard allocators. After, it
maps to libcurl allocators.
Also:
- drop all position-dependent `curl_memory.h` and `memdebug.h` includes,
and delete the now unnecessary headers.
- rename `Curl_tcsdup` macro to `curlx_tcsdup` and define like the other
allocators.
- map `curlx_strdup()` to `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
To fix warnings silenced via `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`.
- multibyte: map `curlx_convert_*()` to `_strdup()` on Windows
(was: `strdup()`).
- src: do not reuse the `strdup` name for the local replacement.
- lib509: call `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
- test1132: delete test obsoleted by this patch.
- CHECKSRC.md: update text for `SNPRINTF`.
- checksrc: ban standard allocator symbols.

After this patch, the codebase no longer overrides system printf
functions. Instead it explicitly calls either the curl printf functions
`curl_m*printf()` or the system ones using their original names.

Move curlx_ functions into its own subdir.
The idea is to use the curlx_ prefix proper on these functions, and use
these same function names both in tool, lib and test suite source code.
Stop the previous special #define setup for curlx_ names.
The printf defines are now done for the library alone. Tests no longer
use the printf defines. The tool code sets its own defines. The printf
functions are not curlx, they are publicly available.
The strcase defines are not curlx_ functions and should not be used by
tool or server code.
dynbuf, warnless, base64, strparse, timeval, timediff are now proper
curlx functions.
When libcurl is built statically, the functions from the library can be
used as-is. The key is then that the functions must work as-is, without
having to be recompiled for use in tool/tests. This avoids symbol
collisions - when libcurl is built statically, we use those functions
directly when building the tool/tests. When libcurl is shared, we
build/link them separately for the tool/tests.

The issues found fell into these categories, with the applied fixes:
- const was accidentally stripped.
Adjust code to not cast or cast with const.
- const/volatile missing from arguments, local variables.
Constify arguments or variables, adjust/delete casts. Small code
changes in a few places.
- const must be stripped because an API dependency requires it.
Strip `const` with `CURL_UNCONST()` macro to silence the warning out
of our control. These happen at API boundaries. Sometimes they depend
on dependency version, which this patch handles as necessary. Also
enable const support for the zlib API, using `ZLIB_CONST`. Supported
by zlib 1.2.5.2 and newer.
- const must be stripped because a curl API requires it.
Strip `const` with `CURL_UNCONST()` macro to silence the warning out
of our immediate control. For example we promise to send a non-const
argument to a callback, though the data is const internally.
- other cases where we may avoid const stripping by code changes.
Also silenced with `CURL_UNCONST()`.
- there are 3 places where `CURL_UNCONST()` is cast again to const.
To silence this type of warning:
```
lib/vquic/curl_osslq.c:1015:29: error: to be safe all intermediate
pointers in cast from 'unsigned char **' to 'const unsigned char **'
must be 'const' qualified [-Werror=cast-qual]
lib/cf-socket.c:734:32: error: to be safe all intermediate pointers in
cast from 'char **' to 'const char **' must be 'const' qualified
[-Werror=cast-qual]
```
There may be a better solution, but I couldn't find it.
These cases are handled in separate subcommits, but without further
markup.
If you see a `-Wcast-qual` warning in curl, we appreciate your report
about it.

- replace several ISSPACE() with ISBLANK(), since the former also skips
CR and LF which in most cases should not occur where this macro is
used
- after this commit, there is no ISSPACE() user left in libcurl code, but
unfortunately tool and test code use the macro so it cannot be removed.
Closes#16520
To access the string and the length without having to directly use the
struct field names. Gives more freedom, flexbility and keeps
implementation specifics out of users' code.
Closes#16386
Since the ISBLANK() and ISSPACE() macros check for specific matches,
there is no point in using while(*ptr && ISSPACE(*ptr)) etc, as the
'*ptr' check is then superfluous.
Closes#16363
The compare_func() can violate the antisymmetric property required by
qsort. Specifically, when both aa->len == 0 and bb->len == 0, the
function returns conflicting results (-1 for compare_func(a, b) and -1
for compare_func(b, a)).
This violates the rules of qsort and may lead to undefined behavior,
including incorrect sorting or memory corruption in glibc [1].
Add a check to return 0 when both lengths are zero, ensuring proper
behavior and preventing undefined behavior in the sorting process.

Designed to aid converting off from sscanf parsers. sscanf is hard to
use right, easy to mess up and often makes for sloppy error checking.
The new parsers allow more exact and pedandic parsing.
This new set of functions should be possible to use (and extend) and
switch over other libcurl parser code to use going forward.
Adapts the following to use the new functions:
- altsvc.c
- hsts.c
- http_aws_sigv4.c
Bonus: fewer memory copies, fewer stack buffers.
