[perl #112780] Don’t set cloned in-memory handles to ""
PerlIO::scalar’s dup function (PerlIOScalar_dup) calls the base imple-
mentation (PerlIOBase_dup), which pushes the scalar layer on to the
new file handle.
When the scalar layer is pushed, if the mode is ">" then
PerlIOScalar_pushed sets the scalar to the empty string. If it is
already a string, it does this simply by setting SvCUR to 0, without
touching the string buffer.
The upshot of this is that newly-cloned in-memory handles turn into
the empty string, as in this example:
use threads;
my $str = '';
open my $fh, ">", \$str;
$str = 'a';
async {
warn $str; # something's wrong
}->join;
This has probably always been this way.
The test suite for MSCHWERN/Test-Simple-1.005000_005.tar.gz does some-
thing similar to this:
use threads;
my $str = '';
open my $fh, ">", \$str;
print $fh "a";
async {
print $fh "b";
warn $str; # "ab" expected, but 5.15.7-9 gives "\0b"
}->join;
What was happening before commit
b6597275 was that two bugs were can-
celling each other out: $str would be "" when the new thread started,
but with a string buffer containing "a" beyond the end of the string
and $fh remembering 1 as its position. The bug fixed by
b6597275 was
that writing past the end of a string through a filehandle was leaving
junk (whatever was in memory already) in the intervening space between
the old end of string and the beginning of what was being written to
the string. This allowed "" to turn magically into "ab" when "b" was
written one character past the end of the string. Commit
b6597275
started zeroing out the intervening space in that case, causing the
cloning bug to rear its head.
This commit solves the problem by hiding the scalar temporarily
in PerlIOScalar_dup so that PerlIOScalar_pushed won’t be able to
modify it.
Should PerlIOScalar_pushed stop clobbering the string and should
PerlIOScalar_open do it instead? Perhaps. But that would be a bigger
change, and we are supposed to be in code freeze right now.

utf8.c: refactor utf8n_to_uvuni()
The prior version had a number of issues, some of which have been taken
care of in previous commits.
The goal when presented with malformed input is to consume as few bytes
as possible, so as to position the input for the next try to the first
possible byte that could be the beginning of a character. We don't want
to consume too few bytes, so that the next call has us thinking that
what is the middle of a character is really the beginning; nor do we
want to consume too many, so as to skip valid input characters. (This
is forbidden by the Unicode standard because of security
considerations.) The previous code could do both of these under various
circumstances.
In some cases it took as a given that the first byte in a character is
correct, and skipped looking at the rest of the bytes in the sequence.
This is wrong when just that first byte is garbled. We have to look at
all bytes in the expected sequence to make sure it hasn't been
prematurely terminated from what we were led to expect by that first
byte.
Likewise when we get an overflow: we have to keep looking at each byte
in the sequence. It may be that the initial byte was garbled, so that
it appeared that there was going to be overflow, but in reality, the
input was supposed to be a shorter sequence that doesn't overflow. We
want to have an error on that shorter sequence, and advance the pointer
to just beyond it, which is the first position where a valid character
could start.
This fixes a long-standing TODO from an externally supplied utf8 decode
test suite.
And, the old algorithm for finding overflow failed to detect it on some
inputs. This was spotted by Hugo van der Sanden, who suggested the new
algorithm that this commit uses, and which should work in all instances.
For example, on a 32-bit machine, any string beginning with "\xFE" and
having the next byte be either "\x86" or \x87 overflows, but this was
missed by the old algorithm.
Another bug was that the code was careless about what happens when a
malformation occurs that the input flags allow. For example, a sequence
should not start with a continuation byte. If that malformation is
allowed, the code pretended it is a start byte and extracts the "length"
of the sequence from it. But pretending it is a start byte is not the
same thing as it actually being a start byte, and so there is no
extractable length in it, so the number that this code thought was
"length" was bogus.
Yet another bug fixed is that if only the warning subcategories of the
utf8 category were turned on, and not the entire utf8 category itself,
warnings were not raised that should have been.
And yet another change is that given malformed input with warnings
turned off, this function used to return whatever it had computed so
far, which is incomplete or erroneous garbage. This commit changes to
return the REPLACEMENT CHARACTER instead.

earlier version of these commits

5.14.0 adds Perl_cv_set_call_checker(), but no guide to inlining XSUBs.
Being able to inline simple XSUBs was listed as a TODO. 5.14.0 now provides
functionality for a compile-time "fixup" function for an XSUB, added using
Perl_cv_set_call_checker(). This has API-level documentation, but there is
no guide or tutorial on how to exploit this API to actually implement an
XSUB which can inline.

PATCH: [perl #112530] Panic with inversion lists
The code assumed that all property definitions would be well-formed,
meaning, in part, that they would be numerically sorted by code point,
with each range disjoint from all others. So, the code was just
appending each range as it is found to the inversion list it is
building.
This assumption is true for all definitions generated by mktables, but
it might not be true for user-defined ones. The solution is merely to
change from calling the function that appends to instead call the
existing function that handles the more general case.
However, that function was not previously used outside the file it was
defined in, so must now be made public. Also, this whole interface is
considered volatile, so the names of the public functions in it begin
with an underscore to further discourage XS writers from using them.
Therefore the more general add function is renamed to begin with an
underscore.
And, the append function is no longer needed outside the file it is
defined in, so again to keep XS writers from using it, this commit makes
it static.

I squashed three commits by mistake, and it wasn’t worth separ-
