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.

Use non-deprecated CRT function variants on Windows.
- introduce `curlx_fdopen()`, `curlx_close()` and use them. Map them to
non-deprecated, underscored, CRT functions on Windows.
- replace `close()` uses with either `sclose()` (for sockets) or
`curlx_close()` (for files).
- map `fileno`, `unlink`, `isatty` to their non-deprecated, underscored,
versions on Windows.
- tool_dirhie: map `mkdir` to `_mkdir` on Windows.
- easy: use `_strdup()` on Windows, regardless of how `HAVE_STRDUP` is
set.
- cmake: assume `HAVE_STRDUP` on Windows. To allow dropping a detection
hack using `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE` with MSVC. Windows always has
`_strdup()` which the code uses, but also needs `HAVE_STRDUP` defined
to disable curl's own `strdup()` implementation.
- curl_setup.h: drop `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE` as no longer necessary.
Closes#20212
Already included directly via `hostip.c`, and other header users do not

Make sure to call `curlx_now_init()` before the first call to
`curlx_now()`.
Before this patch the first `curlx_now()` used the non-Vista code path
calling `GetTickCount()` on Vista+. This is harmless, but the upcoming
PR #18009 is going to drop the non-Vista code path, causing a division
by zero at startup in test servers, without this fix.
Bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/18009#issuecomment-3652154307Closes#19973
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.

Tidy up headers and includes to ensure all individual test source
compile cleanly (but not link). To allow running clang-tidy (and
possibly other static analyzers) on them. It also improves readability
and allows to verify them locally, without the bundle logic.
clang-tidy ignores #included C files, so it's blind to bundle C files
the include these tests. The current workaround of embedding has
a couple of downsides:. meaningless filenames and line numbers,
missing issues, messing up self header paths. Thus, running it on
individual sources would be beneficial.
Also:
- de-duplicate includes.
- untangle some includes.
- formatting/indentation fixes.
- merge `getpart.h` into `first.h`.

Make test bundles the default. Drop non-bundle build mode.
Also do all the optimizations and tidy-ups this allows, simpler builds,
less bundle exceptions, streamlined build mechanics.
Also rework the init/deinit macro magic for unit tests. The new method
allows using unique init/deinit function names, and calling them with
arguments. This is in turn makes it possible to reduce the use of global
variables.
Note this drop existing build options `-DCURL_TEST_BUNDLES=` from cmake
and `--enable-test-bundles` / `--disable-test-bundles` from autotools.
Also:
- rename test entry functions to have unique names: `test_<testname>`
This removes the last exception that was handled in the generator.
- fix `make dist` to not miss test sources with test bundles enabled.
- sync and merge `tests/mk-bundle.pl` into `scripts/mk-unity.pl`.
- mk-unity.pl: add `--embed` option and use it when `CURL_CLANG_TIDY=ON`
to ensure that `clang-tidy` does not miss external test C sources.
(because `clang-tidy` ignores code that's #included.)
- tests/unit: drop no-op setup/stop functions.
- tests: reduce symbol scopes, global macros, other fixes and tidy-ups.
- tool1621: fix to run, also fix it to pass.
- sockfilt: fix Windows compiler warning in certain unity include order,
by explicitly including `warnless.h`.

Move curlx functions from lib/strerror.c to lib/curlx/winapi.c

Closes#17294
It was not a function properly exposed in the curlx set. SMB cannot
possibly need to send a real pid, now sends a made up number.
The only real users of this function are test servers, so move the logic
over there.
Closes#17298
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.

Closes#17253
Currently the DNS server only responds to A and AAAA queries. It always
responds with a fixed response: the localhost address. Three times.
It should work fine over either IPv4 or IPv6, but I don't think it
matters much for curl testing.
The idea is to allow curl tests to use "normal" DNS hostnames (using the
normal name resolving code paths) and still use the local test servers.
This setup currently only works if curl is built with c-ares because
redirecting DNS requests to our test server when using getaddrinfo() is
not easy.
This should be extended to respond to HTTPS queries as well to allow
more testing there, as c-ares is always used for that.
Test 2102 is the first test using this.
Closes#17015
Use a more descriptive global variable name in server code, also
to avoid colliding with this name used elsewhere in libcurl.
This isn't causing an issue at this time, but makes the code prone
to `-Wshadow` warnings in unity mode, if the global variable is
compiled first. This specific variable could collide with the `path`
argument of the `curlx_win32_stat()` function.
Closes#16719
The issues found fell into these categories, with the applied fixes:
- const was accidentally stripped.
Adjust code to not cast or cast with const.
- const/volatile missing from arguments, local variables.
Constify arguments or variables, adjust/delete casts. Small code
changes in a few places.
- const must be stripped because an API dependency requires it.
Strip `const` with `CURL_UNCONST()` macro to silence the warning out
of our control. These happen at API boundaries. Sometimes they depend
on dependency version, which this patch handles as necessary. Also
enable const support for the zlib API, using `ZLIB_CONST`. Supported
by zlib 1.2.5.2 and newer.
- const must be stripped because a curl API requires it.
Strip `const` with `CURL_UNCONST()` macro to silence the warning out
of our immediate control. For example we promise to send a non-const
argument to a callback, though the data is const internally.
- other cases where we may avoid const stripping by code changes.
Also silenced with `CURL_UNCONST()`.
- there are 3 places where `CURL_UNCONST()` is cast again to const.
To silence this type of warning:
```
lib/vquic/curl_osslq.c:1015:29: error: to be safe all intermediate
pointers in cast from 'unsigned char **' to 'const unsigned char **'
must be 'const' qualified [-Werror=cast-qual]
lib/cf-socket.c:734:32: error: to be safe all intermediate pointers in
cast from 'char **' to 'const char **' must be 'const' qualified
[-Werror=cast-qual]
```
There may be a better solution, but I couldn't find it.
These cases are handled in separate subcommits, but without further
markup.
If you see a `-Wcast-qual` warning in curl, we appreciate your report
about it.
Closes#16142
General tidy-ups, to identify and reduce duplications and potential
issues, while also making the server modules compile as a single binary.
- ensure unique symbols and no shadowing across server sources, by
renaming variables.
- move globals common to multiple servers into shared `util` module.
- drop constants with a single use.
- undef macro before re-using them across server sources.
- move common functions into shared `util` module.
- drop redundant static declarations.
- disable IPv6 code when built without IPv6.
- start syncing the 3 almost identical copies of `sockdaemon` function.
- drop unused `timeval.h` header.
- drop `poll()` from `wait_ms()`, for macOS, following an earlier core
update.

Change the format of error messages sent to stderr from tests and test
servers. As a workaround to avoid triggering Visual Studio's MSBuild
tool's built-in regexp matcher, and making it mark builds failed for
reasons we don't want them to hard fail.
Roughly, the pattern to avoid is the word "error" (case-insensitive)
in the same line with a colon `:`.
It affected GHA/windows MSVC CI jobs, causing flakiness:
