regcomp.c: Change names of some static functions
The term 'class' is very overloaded in regex code and documentation.
perlrecharclass.pod calls the dot (matching any char) a class, and
calls the [] form "bracketed character classes". There are other
meanings as well. This is the first commit in a short series that
removes some of those overloadings.
One instance of class is the "synthetic start class", generated by the
regex optimizer to be a list of all the code points a sucessful match
could possibly start with. This is useful in more quickly finding where
to start looking in matching against a target string. Prior to this
commit, the routines that referred to this began with 'cl_', and the
formal parameters were 'cl', which could mean any class. This commit
changes those instances of 'cl' to 'ssc' to indicate this is the only
type of class that is being handled.

Another faulty padrange assumption
Commit 7601007 was not sufficient. There are two places where the
padrange optimisation tries to combine multiple padranges.
When a padrange op is created in rpeep, the code first checks whether
the previous op is already a padrange, so the two can be combined, as
in this case:
my ($a,$b,$c);
my ($d,$e,$f);
Then the code checks whether it can swallow up any singletons follow-
ing it, optimising cases like this:
my ($v,$w,$x);
my $y;
Commit 7601007 fixed the latter, which was assuming that $x and $y
would have contiguous pad offsets.
This commit fixes the former code, which assumed $c and $d would have
contiguous offsets.
This was causing assertion failures or crashes for Devel::CallParser
0.001 (0.002 works around it), because Devel::CallParser creates new
pad entries when the second ‘my’ keyword is encountered, causing the
pad offsets not to be contiguous.

Remove bad assertion in gv.c:newGP
See the thread starting at
<
20130805090753.12203.qmail@lists-nntp.develooper.com>.
Under the assumption that PL_curcop could never be null in newGP (even
when set to null by S_cop_free in op.c), I added an assertion to
newGP, which still leaving the null checks in place. The idea was
that, if PL_curcop is ever null there, we want to know about it, since
it is probably a bug.
It turns out this code (reduced from DBIx::Class’s test suite), can
fail that assertion:
INIT {
bless {} and exit;
}
exit() calls leave_scope, which frees the INIT block. Since PL_curcop
(the statement inside INIT) would end up pointing to free memory, it
is set to null. When it exits, call_sv does FREETMPS:
case 2:
/* my_exit() was called */
SET_CURSTASH(PL_defstash);
FREETMPS;
JMPENV_POP;
my_exit_jump();
assert(0); /* NOTREACHED */
FREETMPS ends up freeing the object (bless {}), which results
in a DESTROY method lookup. For the sake of caching methods,
*main::DESTROY is autovivified. GV creation trips on the assertion in
newGP that makes sure PL_curcop is null.
So this proves that we really do need to check for a null
PL_curcop in newGP.
While we could avoid having DESTROY lookup vivify *main::DESTROY
(since the cache there would only be used for explicit ->DESTROY
calls, the usual DESTROY cache being stuffed into SvSTASH(stash)),
that would complicate things for no gain.

line number and resets it at the end if that turns out to be the case.
However, it was not resetting PL_parser->herelines, which records how
many line numbers to skip when next incrementing it (to skip past
here-doc bodies).
So save and restore that value, too.

Fix parser buffer corruption with multiline *{...}
Since commit
a49b10d0a, it has been possible for scan_ident in toke.c
to reallocate the parser’s buffer (SvPVX(PL_linestr)) when scanning
for multiline whitespace.
For the sake of those cases where it finds an arbitrary expression,
not just an identifier, it records a pointer to the first opening
brace, which it returns to the parser after finding out that there is
indeed an expression.
That pointer was not being updated when the buffer was being
allocated.
The solution is to record an offset, rather than a pointer, of the
opening brace relative to the beginning of the current line of input.
This one-liner:
$ ./miniperl -e '*{' -e ' XS::APItest::gv_fetchmeth_type()' -e '}'
was giving me:
Unrecognized character \x80; marked by <-- HERE after 2<-- HERE near column 24 at -e line 2.
(There were nine nulls before the 2, but git stripped them out.)

Don’t free initial src from @INC sub too early
As noted in <
20130919225357.GA18474@mars.tony.develop-help.com>, com-
mit 839a0e5 introduces uninitialized warnings (and sometimes other
warnings) in inccode.t.
What actually is happening is that \PVBM is no longer being inlined
and returning the same reference each time, but is returning a new
mortal reference. Commit 839a0e5 uncovers an existing bug.
A sub in @INC can return a reference to a scalar containing initial
source code. That returned value would be freed prematurely if it was
not referenced elsewhere.
We have to increment its reference count before leaving the scope, and
then mortalise it afterwards.

Add newline to new switchd test for VMS.
On VMS, you're going to get a newline at EOF willy nilly, which
was making the expected output fail to match the actual output.
The simplest solution is just to put an explicit newline on the
