fix tainting of s/// with overloaded replacement
The substitution code was trying to track the taintedness of the
replacement string itself, but it didn't account for the replacement
being an untainted object with overloading that returns a tainted

realising that taint could arise during the string concatenation per se.

concatenation. This may falsely ascribe to the replacement taint that
actually came from somewhere else, but the end result is the same anyway:
there's no visible behaviour that distinguishes taint specifically from
the replacement. Also remove a related taint check that seems to be

fix handling of registered warning categories
There were some problems arising from some warning bitsets being shorter
than others, which happens when registration of a new warning category
makes new bitsets longer. Most obviously, if a scope used "use warnings
'all'" to turn on all warnings and then turned off some specific warnings,
then that scope wouldn't get warnings for subsequently-registered warning
categories, because its bitset doesn't extend to the bit controlling
the new category. (If just "use warnings 'all'" was used, without any
customisation, then a special hack made that work for new categories.)
It was also possible for a longer bitset to get truncated by a warnings
pragma, because the bitset editing code assumed that all bitsets are
the same length.
To fix this, first the warning bits for the "all" category have to change
meaning. Unlike all other warning categories, the bits for "all" used to
be set only when there were no warning categories disabled; disabling any
would also clear the "all" bits. That was supporting the special hack
mentioned above that the all-warnings bitset work for new categories.
This exception is now removed, so the meaning of the "all" bits is now the
more obvious meaning, of indicating the default treatment that the scope
wants for warnings not falling into any category known to the bitset.
In warnings::warnif() et al, if the caller's bitset is found to be too
short to have a bit for the relevant category, then the setting for the
"all" category is used instead.
Because the length of a bitset is an integral number of bytes, but
only two bits are used per category, the length of a bitset doesn't
precisely indicate which categories had been registered by the time it
was constructed. So the standard bitsets for the "all" category are
now always filled to their byte length, with bits set preemptively for
categories not yet registered that fall within the current bitset length.
When a warnings pragma operates on a bitset, it first expands it to the
preferred length, by duplicating the "all" bits for the categories covered
by the new length. It is careful to maintain the length when combining
the bitset with the standard bitsets for categories. When a bitset is
read from ${^WARNING_BITS} or from caller(), the standard pWARN_ALL
setting is no longer expanded by the core to $warnings::Bits{all},
because the core's short WARN_ALLstring will now be expanded correctly
just like any other bitset.

[perl #132442] Fix stack with do {my sub l; 1}
A block in perl usually compiles to a leave op with an enter inside
it, followed by the statements:
leave
enter
nextstate
... expr ...
nextstate
... expr ...
If a block contains only one statement, and that statement is suffic-
iently innocuous, then the enter/leave pair to create the scope at run
time get skipped, and instead we have a simple scope op which is not
even executed:
scope
ex-nextstate
... expr ...
The nextstate in this case also gets nulled.
In the case of do { my sub l; 1 } we were getting a variation of the
latter, that looked like this:
scope
introcv
clonecv
nextstate
... expr ...
The problem here is that nextstate resets the stack, even though a new
scope has not been pushed, so we end up with all existing stack items
from the *outer* scope getting clobbered.
One can have fun with this and erase everything pushed on to the stack
so far in a given statement:
$ ./perl -le 'print join "-", 1..10, do {my sub l; ","}, 11..20'
11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20
Here I replaced the first argument to join() from within the do{}
block, after having cleared the stack.
Why was the op tree was getting muddled up like this? The ‘my sub’
declaration does not immediately add any ops to the op tree; those ops
get added when the current scope finishing compiling, since those ops
must be inserted at the beginning of the block.
I have not fully looked into the order that things happen, and why the
nextstate op does not get nulled; but it did not matter, because of
the simple fix: Treat lexical sub declarations as ‘not innocuous’ by
setting the HINT_BLOCK_SCOPE flag when a lexical sub is declared.
Thus, we end up with an enter/leave pair, which creates a
proper scope.

Introduce macros to simplify @INC setting
Distro trends to customize @INC, and to maintain
patches to change the order of @INC or add custom entries.
The goal of this patch is to abstract calls to 'S_incpush_use_sep'
and simplify reordering @INC.
This commit makes the code from perl.c more comfortable to read
by introducing several 'INCPUSH_*' macros for every
'S_incpush_use_sep' call so we can easily reorder them.

Storable: remove Config dependency
RT #132406
Avoid loading Config/Config_heavy from Storable.
Make Storable.pm a template file and check
if the system can use flock at compile time.

easier to edit.

better document macros taking literal strings
When giving a function-style prototype for a macro taking a literal string
parameter, put a string literal in place of a type for that parameter.
This goofy appearance makes it obvious that this isn't really a function,

expression of the right type. Also change the nonsensical "NUL-terminated
literal string" to "literal string" to describe these parameters.
