Make perlio line buffer VMS record-oriented files on output.

When perlio flushes down to the unix layer, it can introduce a
spurious record boundary when writing to a record-oriented file.
Perl may create such files when doing edit-in-place or any other
context where the file format is inherited from a previous
version of the file.

The problem can be eliminated by enabling line buffering on such
files when they are opened.  This was a regression in 5.10.0 since
before that stdio's buffering performed the same function.

N.B.  Lines longer than the size of the perlio buffer will still
result in multiple records -- a larger buffer may be necessary.

[perl #74022] Parser hangs on some Unicode characters

This changes the definition of isIDFIRST_utf8 to avoid any characters
that would put the parser in a loop.

isIDFIRST_utf8 is used all over the place in toke.c. Almost every
instance is followed by a call to S_scan_word. S_scan_word is only
called when it is known that there is a word to scan.

What was happening was that isIDFIRST_utf8 would accept a character,
but S_scan_word in toke.t would then reject it, as it was using
is_utf8_alnum, resulting in an infinite number of zero-length
identifiers.

Another possible solution was to change S_scan_word to use
isIDFIRST_utf8 or similar, but that has back-compatibility problems,
as it stops q·foo· from being a strings and makes it an identi-

Update isarev when clobbered class has subsubclasses

This fixes a case that mro_package_moved did not take into account:
If a class with multiple levels of subclasses was assigned over, then,
depending on the order in which the subclasses were processed in the
second loop in mro_package_moved, the subclasses might not be removed
from the isarev hashes of superclasses of the clobbered class.

This was because a call to mro_isa_changed_in on one class could call
mro_get_linear_isa on another class in the list, overwriting its
meta->isa hash, which is used to determine what to delete from
PL_isarev.

E.g., if D isa C isa B isa A, this assignment:

  *B:: = *something::;

would cause B, C and D to be iterated over, but not in any particular
order. The order could be D, C, B, in which case mro_isa_changed_in(D)
would overwrite the meta->isa hash in C with one that did not list A.
So mro_isa_changed_in(C) would not see A in meta->isa and would not
delete PL_isarev->{A}{C}.

This commit stores the meta->isa hash as the value in the ‘big list’,
instead of the stash. The stash itself can be retrieved from the key,
since it is already a memory address (a pointer cast to a char array).

test case, prior to this commit.

riter was not being reset before the second iteration in
