build: drop more forward function declarations
Most by moving functions around. Also delete unused ones.
Reducing their number from 83 to 33.

Remaining ones due to:
- circular dependencies.
- H3 code, that I did not attempt to update and likely the above applies.
- static declarations with attributes (`CURL_PRINTF`, `WARN_UNUSED_RESULT`).
- OS400 code.

localtime: detect thread-safe alternatives and use them
- add local API `toolx_localtime()` to wrap the banned function
  `localtime()`. Used from libcurl, libtests and test servers.
- auto-detect and use `localtime_r()` where available (e.g. Linux).
  Also to support multi-threading.
- use `localtime_s()` on Windows. It requires MSVC or mingw-w64 v4+.
  Also to support multi-threading.
  Use local workaround to also support mingw-w64 v3.
- add `src/toolx` to keep internal APIs used by the curl tool and tests,
  but not by libcurl. `toolx_localtime()` is the first API in it.
- replace `localtime()` calls with `toolx_localtime()`.
  Except in examples.
- note Windows XP's default `msvcrt.dll` doesn't offer secure CRT APIs.
  XP likely needs a newer version of this DLL, or may not run.
- note that `localtime()` mirrors `gmtime()`, with the difference that
  `gmtime()`'s internal wrapper lives in curlx.

Also:
- drop redundant `int` casts.

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.

build: avoid overriding system symbols for fopen functions
By introducing wrappers for them in the curlx namespace:
`curlx_fopen()`, `curlx_fdopen()`, `curlx_fclose()`.

The undefine/redefine/`(function)()` methods broke on systems
implementing these functions as macros. E.g. AIX 32-bit's `fopen()`.

Also:
- rename `lib/fopen.*` to `lib/curl_fopen.*` (for `Curl_fopen()`)
  to make room for the newly added `curlx/fopen.h`.
- curlx: move file-related functions from `multibyte.c` to `fopen.c`.
- tests/server: stop using the curl-specific `fopen()` implementation
  on Windows. Unicode isn't used by runtests, and it isn't critical to
  run tests on longs path. It can be re-enabled if this becomes
  necessary, or if the wrapper receives a feature that's critical for
  test servers.

curl: make global truly global

curlx: move into to curlx/
Move curlx_ functions into its own subdir.

The idea is to use the curlx_ prefix proper on these functions, and use
these same function names both in tool, lib and test suite source code.
Stop the previous special #define setup for curlx_ names.

The printf defines are now done for the library alone. Tests no longer
use the printf defines. The tool code sets its own defines. The printf
functions are not curlx, they are publicly available.

The strcase defines are not curlx_ functions and should not be used by
tool or server code.

dynbuf, warnless, base64, strparse, timeval, timediff are now proper
curlx functions.

When libcurl is built statically, the functions from the library can be
used as-is. The key is then that the functions must work as-is, without
having to be recompiled for use in tool/tests. This avoids symbol
collisions - when libcurl is built statically, we use those functions
directly when building the tool/tests. When libcurl is shared, we
build/link them separately for the tool/tests.

src: fix potential macro confusion in cmake unity builds
Sources used `lib/curlx.h` with both `ENABLE_CURLX_PRINTF` set and unset
before including it.

In a cmake "unity" batch where the first included source had it unset,
the next sources did not get the macros requested with
`ENABLE_CURLX_PRINTF` because `lib/curl.x` had already been included
without them.

Fix it by by making the macros enabled permanently and globally for
internal sources, and dropping `ENABLE_CURLX_PRINTF`.

This came up while testing unity builds with smaller batches. The full,
default unity build where all `src` is bundled up in a single unit, was
not affected.

Fixes:
```
$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON -DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD_BATCH_SIZE=15
$ make -C build

build: enable missing OpenSSF-recommended warnings, with fixes
https://best.openssf.org/Compiler-Hardening-Guides/Compiler-Options-Hardening-Guide-for-C-and-C++.html
as of 2023-11-29 [1].

Enable new recommended warnings (except `-Wsign-conversion`):

- enable `-Wformat=2` for clang (in both cmake and autotools).
- add `CURL_PRINTF()` internal attribute and mark functions accepting
  printf arguments with it. This is a copy of existing
  `CURL_TEMP_PRINTF()` but using `__printf__` to make it compatible
  with redefinting the `printf` symbol:
  https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-3.0.4/gcc_5.html#SEC94
- fix `CURL_PRINTF()` and existing `CURL_TEMP_PRINTF()` for
  mingw-w64 and enable it on this platform.
- enable `-Wimplicit-fallthrough`.
- enable `-Wtrampolines`.
- add `-Wsign-conversion` commented with a FIXME.
- cmake: enable `-pedantic-errors` the way we do it with autotools.
  Follow-up to d5c0351055 #2747
- lib/curl_trc.h: use `CURL_FORMAT()`, this also fixes it to enable format
  checks. Previously it was always disabled due to the internal `printf`
  macro.

Fix them:

- fix bug where an `set_ipv6_v6only()` call was missed in builds with
  `--disable-verbose` / `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS=ON`.
- add internal `FALLTHROUGH()` macro.
- replace obsolete fall-through comments with `FALLTHROUGH()`.
- fix fallthrough markups: Delete redundant ones (showing up as
  warnings in most cases). Add missing ones. Fix indentation.
- silence `-Wformat-nonliteral` warnings with llvm/clang.
- fix one `-Wformat-nonliteral` warning.
- fix new `-Wformat` and `-Wformat-security` warnings.
- fix `CURL_FORMAT_SOCKET_T` value for mingw-w64. Also move its
  definition to `lib/curl_setup.h` allowing use in `tests/server`.
- lib: fix two wrongly passed string arguments in log outputs.

tool: use our own stderr variable
Earlier this year we changed our own stderr variable to use the standard
name `stderr` (to avoid bugs where someone is using `stderr` instead of
the curl-tool specific variable). This solution needed to override the
standard `stderr` symbol via the preprocessor. This in turn didn't play
well with unity builds and caused curl tool to crash or stay silent due
to an uninitialized stderr. This was a hard to find issue, fixed by
manually breaking out one file from the unity sources.

To avoid two these two tricks, this patch implements a different
solution: Restore using our own local variable for our stderr output and
leave `stderr` as-is. To avoid using `stderr` by mistake, add a
`checksrc` rule (based on logic we already used in lib for `strerror`)
that detects any `stderr` use in `src` and points to using our own
variable instead: `tool_stderr`.

2f17a9b654 tool: improve --stderr handling
- freopen stderr with the user-specified file (--stderr file) instead of

- In tool_setup.h override stdio.h's stderr macro as global variable

Both freopen and overriding the stderr macro are necessary because if
the user-specified filename is "-" then stdout is assigned to
tool_stderr and no freopen takes place. See the PR for more information.

e8423f9ce1 curl_setup: Add macros for FOPEN_READTEXT, FOPEN_WRITETEXT
- Change fopen calls to use FOPEN_READTEXT instead of "r" or "rt"
- Change fopen calls to use FOPEN_WRITETEXT instead of "w" or "wt"

This change is to explicitly specify when we need to read/write text.
Unfortunately 't' is not part of POSIX fopen so we can't specify it
directly. Instead we now have FOPEN_READTEXT, FOPEN_WRITETEXT.

Prior to this change we had an issue on Windows if an application that
uses libcurl overrides the default file mode to binary. The default file
mode in Windows is normally text mode (translation mode) and that's what
libcurl expects.
