- de-dupe lib/src strdup/memdup functions into curlx.
- introduce `CURLX_STRDUP_LOW()` for mapping `strdup()`, and to do it at
one place within the code, in `curl_setup.h`.
- tests/server: use `curlx_strdup()`. (Also to fix building without
a system `strdup()`.)
- curlx/curlx.h: shorten and tidy up.
- adjust Windows build path to not need `HAVE_STRDUP`.
- build: stop detecting `HAVE_STRDUP` on Windows.
Closes#20497
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.

Replace:
- `open()` with `curlx_open()` (1 call).
- `fopen()` with `curlx_fopen()`.
- `fclose()` with `curlx_fclose()`.
To centralize interacting with the CRT in preparation for using "safe"
alternatives on Windows. This also adds long-filename and Unicode
support for these operations on Windows.
Keep using `open()` in the signal handler to avoid any issues with
calling code not allowed in signal handlers.

To make it simpler to move them around, create and delete them without
syncing with `REUSE.toml`.
Also:
- checksrc: allow empty lines in `.checksrc`.
- comment on why curl printfs are disallowed in examples.
Closes#19024
After this patch, the codebase no longer overrides system printf
functions. Instead it explicitly calls either the curl printf functions
`curl_m*printf()` or the system ones using their original names.
Also:
- drop unused `curl_printf.h` includes.
- checksrc: ban system printf functions, allow where necessary.

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.
Closes#18823
Replace them by `curlx_open()` and `curlx_stat()`.
To make it obvious in the source code what is being executed.
Also:
- tests/server: stop overriding `open()` for test servers.
This is critical for the call made from the signal handler.
For other calls, it's an option to use `curlx_open()`, but
doesn't look important enough to do it, following the path
taken with `fopen()`.

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.

Before this patch `accept4()`, `socket()`, `socketpair()`, `send()` and
`recv()` system symbols were remapped via macros, using the same name,
to local curl debug wrappers. This patch replaces these overrides by
introducing curl-namespaced macros that map either to the system symbols
or to their curl debug wrappers in `CURLDEBUG` (TrackMemory) builds.
This follows a patch that implemented the same for `accept()`.
The old method required tricks to make these redefines work in unity
builds, and avoid them interfering with system headers. These tricks
did not work for system symbols implemented as macros.
The new method allows to setup these mappings once, without interfering
with system headers, upstream macros, or unity builds. It makes builds
more robust.
Also:
- checksrc: ban all mapped functions.
- docs/examples: tidy up checksrc rules.

Closes#17764
Use 'banfunc' and 'allowfunc' in .checksrc to specify which functions to
ban or allow to be used. This saves us from having to edit the script
going forward when we want to ban or allow specific functions.
This replaces a set of previous rules and all banned functions are now
checked with the BANNEDFUNC rule.
There is a set of default banned functions, shown by invoking
./checksrc.
Also, -a and -b options are added to specify allowed or banned functions
on the command line.
Closes#15835
Using sscanf() is not a (security) problem in itself, but we strongly
discorage using it for parsing input since it is hard to use right, easy
to mess up and often makes for sloppy error checking.
Allow it in examples and tests
