change when to make CvGV refcounted
Rather than making CvGV refcounted if the CV is anon, decide based on
whether the GV pointed to by CvGV holds a reference back to us. Normally
these two will be equivalent, but this way is more robust if people are
doing weird things.
Also spotted an error with cv_clone not clearing the CVf_CVGV_RC flag on
the newly cloned cv. This shouldn't normally matter as it will get set
shortly anyway, but best to keep things logically correct.

the CvGV field is sometimes reference counted. Since it was intended that
the reference counting would happen only for anonymous CVs, the CVf_ANON
flag was co-opted to indicate whether RC was being used. This is not
entirely robust; for example, sub __ANON__ {} is a non-anon sub which
points to the same GV used by anon subs, which while itself doesn't
directly break things, shows that the potential for breakage is there.
So add a separate flag just to indicate the reference count status of the
CvGV field.

protect CvGV weakref with backref
Each CV usually has a pointer, CvGV(cv), back to the GV that corresponds
to the CV's name (or to *foo::__ANON__ for anon CVs). This pointer wasn't
reference counted, to avoid loops. This could leave it dangling if the GV
is deleted.
We fix this by:
For named subs, adding backref magic to the GV, so that when the GV is
freed, it can trigger processing the CV's CvGV field. This processing
consists of: if it looks like the freeing of the GV is about to trigger
freeing of the CV too, set it to NULL; otherwise make it point to
*foo::__ANON__ (and set CvAONON(cv)).
For anon subs, make CvGV a strong reference, i.e. increment the refcnt of
*foo::__ANON__. This doesn't cause a loop, since in this case the
__ANON__ glob doesn't point to the CV. This also avoids dangling pointers
if someone does an explicit 'delete $foo::{__ANON__}'.
Note that there was already some partial protection for CvGV with
commit
f1c32fec87699aee2eeb638f44135f21217d2127. This worked by
anonymising any corresponding CV when freeing a stash or stash entry.
This had two drawbacks. First it didn't fix CVs that were anonmous or that
weren't currently pointed to by the GV (e.g. after local *foo), and
second, it caused *all* CVs to get anonymised during cleanup, even the
ones that would have been deleted shortly afterwards anyway. This commit
effectively removes that former commit, while reusing a bit of the
actual anonymising code.

process xhv_backreferences early in S_hfreeentries
When deleting a stash, make the algorithm
GvSTASH($_) = NULL for (@xhv_backreferences);

free each stash entry;
Previously the algorithm was
hide xhv_backreferences as ordinary backref magic;
free each stash entry:
this may trigger a sv_del_backref() for each GV being freed
delete @xhv_backreferences
The new method is:
* more efficient: one scan through @xhv_backreferences rather than lots of
calls to sv_del_backref(), removing elements one by one;
* makes the code simpler; the 'hide xhv_backreferences as backref magic'
hack no longer needs to be done
* removes a bug whereby GVs that had a refcnt > 1 (the usual case) were
left with a GvSTASH pointing to the freed stash; it's now NULL instead. I
couldn't think of a test for this.
There are two drawbacks:
* If the GV gets freed at the same time as the stash, the freeing code
sees the GV with a GVSTASH of NULL rather than still pointing to the
stash.
* As far as I can see, the only difference this currently makes is that
mro_method_changed_in() is no longer called by sv_clear(), but since we're
blowing away the whole stash anyway, method resolution doesn't really
bother us any more.
At some point in the future I might set GvSTASH to %__ANON__ rather than
NULL.

Create S_assert_uft8_cache_coherent() with one copy of the cache panic code.
Replacing 4 copies of this debugging-only routine with 1 reduces source and
object code size.

Perl_sv_len_utf8 can use the UTF-8 offset cache to reduce its linear scan.
Previously, if the scalar's character length wasn't yet known, but an offset
midway was, the offset would be ignored, and the linear scan of UTF-8 was for
the entire length of the scalar.

Perl_sv_pos_b2u now calls utf8_mg_len_cache_update for the string end offset.
Previously it would not take special action if the offset requested happened to
be the end of the string, meaning that the (fixed size) UTF-8 offset cache
would be used for a value which could (and should) be stored elsewhere.

S_sv_pos_u2b_cached now updates the UTF-8 length cache if at the end of string.
Pass in a boolean to S_sv_pos_u2b_forwards, which sets it to true if it
discovers that the UTF-8 offset is at (or after) the end of the string.
This can only happen if we don't already know the SV's length (in Unicode
characters), because if we know it, we always call S_sv_pos_u2b_midway().

Fix for RT#2353: catch yyparse() exceptions in (?{...})
Ticket is entitled:
"panic: top_env when localizing a lexical variable in qr{(?{...})}"
but a better description would be:
"(?{...}) does not catch yyparse() exceptions in regex compilation"
Changes Perl_sv_compile_2op() to tell doeval() that it must use
S_try_yyparse() to catch any exception that yyparse() may throw.
