z/OS ASCII Enablement: Manage untagged header errno.h by copy & tag
The system headers on z/OS are in EBCDIC, but are untagged. The bi-modal build requires that files be tagged correctly
so this patch copies the errno.h file (which may be mounted on a read-only file system) to a local file and then tags
it as IBM-1047 (EBCDIC) so that it can be processed properly. The longer-term fix for this may be to have z/OS tag
header files as EBCDIC, although this would not be something Perl could rely on for several years.

PERL_SET_CONTEXT(t) needs to set PL_current_context from C++ too
We want to use C11 thread local storage where possible, as its read overhead
is lower. However C++ uses incompatible syntax for TLS, so we have to hide
the variable from C++ extensions, and have the read code "fall back" to the
pthread_getspecific() approach.
However, C++ extensions also need to be able to call PERL_SET_CONTEXT(t) and
have everything still work the same as C extensions. Hence they *also* need
to set PL_current_context - a variable that has to be hidden from them.
Hence change the version of the PERL_SET_CONTEXT macro used by C++
extensions from inline code to a call to Perl_set_context(), and have that
set PL_current_context (when used).
Technically this commit also fixes a bug in that Perl_set_context() is API
and should have been setting PL_current_context since that variable was
first introduced. In practice, likely nothing uses this API, as there is no
code on CPAN that calls it, and the macro PERL_SET_CONTEXT() is much more
prominent.
Nicholas Clark [Tue, 4 Jan 2022 18:27:17 +0000 (18:27 +0000)]
For C++ extensions, use the pthreads definition of PERL_GET_CONTEXT
Configure probes the C compiler to find out whether it supports C11 thread
local storage, and if found uses this for PERL_SET_CONTEXT/PERL_GET_CONTEXT,
in preference to the pthread_setspecific()/pthread_getspecific() approach.
However, we can come unstuck with XS extensions written in C++, as C++ and C
disagree on the syntax used for thread local storage, meaning that the
working token that Configure probed for C turns out to be a compiler error
on C++.
As Configure doesn't have a way to probe for C++ dialects, we just take the
safe option and do the same as 5.34.0 and earlier - use pthreads on C++.
This commit is minimal because the implementation of PERL_SET_CONTEXT for
C11 thread local storage was already defensively written to *also* call
pthread_setspecific().

Add missing aliases for \p{Present_In}
\p{Present_In} is a Perl extension of the Unicode Age property, added
because knowing the exact Unicode version in which a code point became
assigned is rarely what you want; much more frequently you want to know
if the code point exists in the version or not. (Since this extension
was added, Unicode changed their language to declare that the Age
property should be interpreted in pattern matching, not as described,
but as Perl's Present_In is. But I chose to not change Age, to avoid
backwards compatibility issues, and this way, a coder can choose which
thing s/he wanted.)
Unicode typically has synonyms (aliases) for each value a property can
tak on, so \p{Age=6.1} and \p{Age=V61_1} mean the same thing.

Specify PERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV when configuring ASCII z/OS builds
The Perl code expects that the ``environ`` global variable can be
re-allocated to new storage and then have entries added and removed from
it. This isn't supported by z/OS when in Bi-Modal mode and so
_PERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV_ macro is defined to use the _env_ services to
manipulate ``environ`` instead of doing so directly. It is not clear if
it is valid to re-allocate storage for the ``environ`` global variable
or not, although it is worth pursuing with the z/OS development team as
a longer-term potential fix.

Change pack U behavior for EBCDIC
This effectively reverts

It turns out this was a bad idea to make U mean the non-native official
Unicode code points. It may seem to make sense to do so, but broke
multiple CPAN modules which were using U the previous way.
This commit has no effect on ASCII-platform functioning.

Replace 'slave' with 'client'
This commit moves us a step forward on eliminating 'master/slave' terminology.
Its scope is limited to those files within the Perl 5 core distribution which
are not CPAN-upstream. Within that scope, we leave untouched the use of the
term 'slave' in epigraphs and other literary quotations and its use in data
coming from outside sources (e.g., Unicode code points).

sv_upgrade: c99 compound literals to initialize xpvav/xpvhv
For both the AV and HV cases, the new body is Zero()ed but then various
struct members are set to non-zero values. Now that we support parts of
c99, it seems more efficient to use compound literals to initailize the
struct members.
With gcc v8.3.0, the compiled function is smaller by 25 instructions.
sv.o is slightly smaller, but the final perl binary size is unchanged.

use is_deeply instead of eq_ Test::More functions
the eq_set, eq_hash, and eq_array functions in Test::More are
discouraged to use, and is_deeply is recommended. Ref:
https://metacpan.org/pod/Test::More#Discouraged-comparison-functions
The reason for this is that, if the tests fail, is_deeply has much
better diagnostics.
The other thing is that is_deeply is a test function directly, where
eq_hash and such need to be wrapped inside ok(). This is easy to forget
-- proof of this is in Benchmark.t, where we had this code, that did not
test anything:
eq_set([keys %$got], [qw(Foo Bar Baz)], 'should be exactly three objects');
It is now replaced by:
is_deeply([sort keys %$got], [sort qw(Foo Bar Baz)], 'should be exactly three objects');
this commit replaces all usage of eq_set, eq_hash, and eq_array in lib/
and ext/ for tests that use Test::More.
One small exception is where a negated test is used; Test::More does not
have is_not_deeply() or such. Test2 has `isnt()` for this, but that is
not in core. In those cases, we still keep using the eq_ operators.
