build: constify memchr()/strchr()/etc result variables
And a few variables around.

There remain cases where the accepted pointer is const, yet the returned
pointer is written to.

Partly addressing (glibc 2.43):
```
* For ISO C23, the functions bsearch, memchr, strchr, strpbrk, strrchr,
  strstr, wcschr, wcspbrk, wcsrchr, wcsstr and wmemchr that return
  pointers into their input arrays now have definitions as macros that
  return a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input argument is
  a pointer to a const-qualified type.
```

build: fully omit verbose strings and code when disabled
When the compiler supports C99.

- map logging functions to macro stubs when verbose logging is disabled
  and the compiler is C99. Make sure these stubs silence unused variable
  warnings for non-variadic arguments.
  Before this patch they mapped to function stubs, the same codepath
  used for C89 compiler in this configuration.

- introduce new macros to tell the compiler which code to include
  when verbose code is active, or inactive:

  - `CURLVERBOSE`: defined when verbose code is active.
    To enclose blocks of code only used for verbose logging.

  - `VERBOSE(statement);`:
    compile statement when verbose code is active.
    To mark code lines only used for verbose logging.

  - `NOVERBOSE(statement);`:
    compile statement when verbose code is inactive.
    To suppress warnings for arguments passed to logging functions via
    printf masks, e.g. `NOVERBOSE((void)ipaddress);`, yet keeping
    the warning in verbose builds.

  Note these macros are not the same as `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS`.
  Verbose code is always active in C89 mode (without variadic macro
  support).

- drop existing uses of `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS` where redundant,
  or replace with the above macros. Ending up reducing the number of
  `#ifdef`s, and also the number of lines.

lib: separate scheme info from protocol implementation
This allows builds know about all schemes - but only have the protocol
implementations for those actually built-in.

It further allows multiple protocols to reuse the same protocol setup
and functions for both TLS and non-TLS implementations instead of
needing two (or more) structs.

The scheme information is now in 'struct Curl_scheme' and all the
function pointers for each scheme/protocol implementation are in struct
Curl_protocol.

The URL API now always work with all known protocols.

curlx: limit use of system allocators to the minimum possible
Clone a multibye conversion function into curlx/fopen, and use that
local copy from curlx/fopen functions. Adjust allocators in curlx/fopen
to use curl's in normal builds, and system allocators in TrackMemory
builds to avoid recursion.

This allows to switch curlx/multibyte functions to curl allocators in
all configurations, as they are no longer called by curlx/fopen, and
a recursive call can no longer happen.

After this patch the system allocator is only used in TrackMemory
Windows builds, within curlx `fopen`, `freopen`, `stat` and `open`
functions.

Also:
- test 1, 440, 767: raise allocation limitsto fit the extra allocations
  in Windows Unicode builds.
- replace all uses of `curlx_unicodefree()` macro with `curlx_free()`
  across the codebase.
- curlx/multibyte: delete `curlx_unicodefree()`.
- ldap: join Windows and non-Windows codepaths that became
  identical after moving from `curlx_unicodefree()` to `curlx_free()`.
- vauth: drop a strdup from standard to curl allocator since
  the original allocation is now already done by curl's.
- tool_doswin: drop now superfluous strdup from `FindWin32CACert()`.
- memanalyzer.pm: sync weirdo `calloc` log message with `malloc`'s.

build: stop overriding standard memory allocation functions
Before this patch curl used the C preprocessor to override standard
memory allocation symbols: malloc, calloc, strdup, realloc, free.
The goal of these is to replace them with curl's debug wrappers in
`CURLDEBUG` builds, another was to replace them with the wrappers
calling user-defined allocators in libcurl. This solution needed a bunch
of workarounds to avoid breaking external headers: it relied on include
order to do the overriding last. For "unity" builds it needed to reset
overrides before external includes. Also in test apps, which are always
built as single source files. It also needed the `(symbol)` trick
to avoid overrides in some places. This would still not fix cases where
the standard symbols were macros. It was also fragile and difficult
to figure out which was the actual function behind an alloc or free call
in a specific piece of code. This in turn caused bugs where the wrong
allocator was accidentally called.

To avoid these problems, this patch replaces this solution with
`curlx_`-prefixed allocator macros, and mapping them _once_ to either
the libcurl wrappers, the debug wrappers or the standard ones, matching
the rest of the code in libtests.

This concludes the long journey to avoid redefining standard functions
in the curl codebase.

Note: I did not update `packages/OS400/*.c` sources. They did not
`#include` `curl_setup.h`, `curl_memory.h` or `memdebug.h`, meaning
the overrides were never applied to them. This may or may not have been
correct. For now I suppressed the direct use of standard allocators
via a local `.checksrc`. Probably they (except for `curlcl.c`) should be
updated to include `curl_setup.h` and use the `curlx_` macros.

This patch changes mappings in two places:
- `lib/curl_threads.c` in libtests: Before this patch it mapped to
  libcurl allocators. After, it maps to standard allocators, like
  the rest of libtests code.
- `units`: before this patch it mapped to standard allocators. After, it
  maps to libcurl allocators.

Also:
- drop all position-dependent `curl_memory.h` and `memdebug.h` includes,
  and delete the now unnecessary headers.
- rename `Curl_tcsdup` macro to `curlx_tcsdup` and define like the other
  allocators.
- map `curlx_strdup()` to `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
  To fix warnings silenced via `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`.
- multibyte: map `curlx_convert_*()` to `_strdup()` on Windows
  (was: `strdup()`).
- src: do not reuse the `strdup` name for the local replacement.
- lib509: call `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
- test1132: delete test obsoleted by this patch.
- CHECKSRC.md: update text for `SNPRINTF`.
- checksrc: ban standard allocator symbols.

gssapi: make channel binding conditional on GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG
Fixes #19109 - GSSAPI authentication fails on macOS with Apple's Heimdal
implementation which lacks GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG support for TLS
channel binding.

Commit 0a5ea09a91 introduced TLS channel binding for SPNEGO/GSSAPI
authentication unconditionally, but Apple's Heimdal fork (used on macOS)
does not support this feature, causing "unsupported mechanism" errors
when authenticating to corporate HTTP services with Kerberos.

Solution:
- Add CURL_GSSAPI_HAS_CHANNEL_BINDING detection in curl_gssapi.h based
  on GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG presence (MIT Kerberos >= 1.19)
- Make negotiatedata.channel_binding_data field conditional in vauth.h
- Guard channel binding collection/cleanup in http_negotiate.c
- Guard channel binding usage in spnego_gssapi.c

This follows the same pattern as GSS_C_DELEG_POLICY_FLAG detection and
ensures graceful degradation when channel binding is unavailable while
maintaining full support for implementations that have it.

Changes:
- lib/curl_gssapi.h: Add feature detection macro
- lib/vauth/vauth.h: Make struct field conditional
- lib/http_negotiate.c: Conditional init/cleanup (2 locations)
- lib/vauth/spnego_gssapi.c: Conditional channel binding usage

Tested on macOS with Apple Heimdal (no channel binding) and Linux with
MIT Kerberos (with channel binding). Both configurations authenticate
successfully without errors.

  Drop logic detecting this header, and drop alternate logic including

  added support for it for Heimdal compatibility on 2006-11-09,
  redirecting to `gssapi/gssapi.h`. MIT Kerberos supported the latter
  header in the 1990s already.

- tests/server: show the error code next to the string, where missing.
- curlx: use `curl_msnprintf()` when building for src and tests.
  (units was already using it.)
- lib: drop unused includes found along the way.
- curlx_strerror(): avoid compiler warning (and another similar one):
  ```

checksrc: reduce directory-specific exceptions
By making them defaults, then fixing and/or reshuffling remaining
exceptions as necessary.

- checksrc: ban by default: `snprintf`, `vsnprintf`, `sscanf`, `strtol`.
- examples: replace `strtol` with `atoi` to avoid a checksrc exception.
- tests/libtest: replace `strtol` with `atol`.
- tests/server: replace most `strtol` with `atol`.
- tests/server: replace most `strtoul` with `atol`/`atoi`.
- tests/server: drop no longer used `util_ultous`.
- fix typo in checksrc rules: `vsnprint` -> `vsnprintf`.
- update local exceptions.

Also:
- examples: ban curl printf functions. They're discouraged in user code.
- examples: replace curl printf with system printf.
  Add `snprintf` workaround for <VS2015.
- examples/synctime: fix `-Wfloat-equal`.
- examples/synctime: exclude for non-Windows and non-UWP Windows.
- examples/synctime: build by default.

tidy-up: update MS links, allow long URLs via checksrc
- update Microsoft documentation links.
  (also drop language designator where present.)

- checksrc: allow longer than 78 character lines if they
  contain a https URL. To make these links easier to use and parse.

- merge links that were split into two lines.

windows: stop passing unused, optional argument for Win9x compatibility
Expiry timestamp in `AcquireCredentialsHandle()` (SSPI) and
`InitializeSecurityContext()` (Schannel) calls. The argument is optional
in both. The returned value was never used in curl. The reason for
passing it was Windows 95 compatibility, according to comments in
the SSPI code. curl no longer supports Windows 95.

tidy-up: avoid using the reserved macro namespace
To avoid hitting `-Wreserved-macro-identifier` where possible.

- amigaos: introduce local macro instead of reusing `__request()`.
- easy_lock: avoid redefining `__has_builtin()`.
  Follow-up to 33fd57b8ff #9062
- rand: drop interim macro `_random()`.
- windows: rename local macro `_tcsdup()` to `Curl_tcsdup()`.
  To avoid using the reserved macro namespace and to avoid
  colliding with `_tcsdup()` as defined by Windows headers.
- checksrc: ban `_tcsdup()` in favor of `Curl_tcsdup()`.
- tool_doswin: avoid redefining `_use_lfn()` (MS-DOS).
- tool_findfile: limit `__NO_NET_API` hack to AmigaOS.
  Syncing this pattern with `lib/netrc.c`.
  Follow-up to 784a8ec2c1 #16279
- examples/http2-upload: avoid reserved namespace for local macro.

More cases will be removed when dropping WinCE support via #17927.

Cases remain when defining external macros out of curl's control.
