Assertion fails in multi-char regex match

The bug occurs when the RHS tries to match the first two es's, but that
splits the LHS \xDF character, which Perl doesn't know how to handle,

Make ‘require func()’ work with .pm abs path
As of commit
282b29ee485, pp_requires passes an SV to S_doopen_pm,
instead of char*/length pair.
That commit also used sv_mortalcopy() to copy the sv when trying out a
.pmc extension:
+ SV *const pmcsv = sv_mortalcopy(name);
When the path is absolute, the sv passed to S_doopen_pm is the very sv
that was passed to require. If it was returned from a (non-lvalue)
sub-routine, it will be marked TEMP, so the buffer gets stolen.
After the .pmc file is discovered to be nonexistent, S_doopen_pm then
uses its original sv to open the .pm file. But the buffer has been
stolen, so it’s trying to open undef, which fais.
In the mean time, pp_require still has a pointer to the stolen buffer,
which now has a .pmc extenion, it blithely reports that the .pmc file
cannot be found, not realising that its string has changed out from
under it. (Actually, if the file name were just the right length, it
could be reallocated and we could end up with a crash.)
This patch copies the sv more kindly.

"fix bug; also prefix ?? matches with m due to 5.14 deprecation"
I also fixed a bug in the original. I'm always getting C<eof> vs C<eof()>
swapped in my brain, which is what had happened here. The old code didn't
do what it said it did because it contrary to the comments didn't reset at
each eof -- because it used the C<eof()> form which is all of ARGV rather
than bare C<eof> for the last file read, and thus each per-file component
of ARGV.
I am concerned about the two paragraphs previous to that, because they
use eof() and I am not perfectly clear that they should. But I left
them as is.
Jesse asked for "a lot of eyes", so if folks could please look at this
patch and see whether it looks ok, I'd appreciate it. I did test it
under blead, both with and without the prefixed m on the m?? matches,
which is how I discovered it was buggy with the C<eof()> not C<eof>.

PATCH: [perl #89750]: Unicode regex negated case-insensitivity
This patch causes inverted [bracketed] character classes to not handle
multi-character folds. The reason is that these can lead to very
counter-intuitive results (see bug discussion).
In an inverted character class, only single-char folds are now
generated. However the fold for \xDF=>ss is hard-coded in,
and it was too much trouble sending flags to the sub-sub routine that
does this, so another check is done at the point of storing the list of
multi-char folds. Since \xDF doesn't have a single char fold, this
works.
