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.

- badwords.pl: add `-a` option to check all lines in source code files.
Before this patch indented lines were skipped (to avoid Markdown code
fences.)
- GHA/checksrc: use `-a` when verifying the source code.
- GHA/checksrc: disable `So` and `But` rules for source code.
- GHA/checksrc: add docs/examples to the verified sources.
- badwords.txt: delete 4 duplicates.
- badwords.txt: group and sort contractions.
- badwords.txt: allow ` url = `, `DIR`, `<file name`.
Closes#19536
On ancient Apple OS versions where SecTrustEvaluateWithError() is not
available, the deprected SecTrustEvaluate() is used. In that code
branch, the code checked the wong variable for the verified result.
Closes#18929
- configure/cmake support for enabling the option
- supported in OpenSSL and GnuTLS backends
- when configured, Apple SecTrust is the default trust store
for peer verification. When one of the CURLOPT_* for adding
certificates is used, that default does not apply.
- add documentation of build options and SSL use
