- add hex and octal parsers to the Curl_str_* family
- make curlx_strtoofft use these parsers
- remove all use of strtol() and strtoul() in library code
- generally use Curl_str_* more than strtoofft, for stricter parsing
- supports 64-bit universally, instead of 'long' which differs in size
between platforms
Extended the unit test 1664 to verify hex and octal parsing.
Closes#16336
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
We have and provide Curl_strerror() internally for a reason: strerror()
is not necessarily thread-safe so we should always try to avoid it.
Extended checksrc to warn for this, but feature the check disabled by
default and only enable it in lib/
Closes#7685
