build: tidy up curl-specific fstat calls and stat struct type
To avoid redefining the `fstat` system symbol, and to clarify
`struct_stat` is a curl symbol.

- introduce `curlx_fstat()` macro and use it.
- rename `struct_stat` to `curl_struct_stat`.

Also:
- tests: replace direct `curlx_win32_stat()` call with `curlx_stat()`.
- checksrc: disallow direct `_fstati64` and `fstat()` calls, except in
  examples.

Closes #20496

build: update to not need _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE with MSVC
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.

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.

lib: stop overriding system printf symbols
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.

checksrc: reduce directory-specific exceptions
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.

build: avoid overriding system open and stat symbols
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()`.

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.

build: avoid overriding system symbols for socket functions
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.

core: stop redefining E* macros on Windows, map EACCES, related fixes
Before this patch, standard `E*` errno codes were redefined on Windows,
onto matching winsock2 `WSA*` error codes, which have different values.
This broke uses where using the `E*` value in non-socket context, or
other places expecting a POSIX `errno`, e.g. file I/O, threads, IDN or
interfacing with dependencies.

Fix it by introducing a curl-specific `SOCKE*` set of macros that map to
`WSA*` on Windows and standard POSIX codes on other platforms. Then
verify and update the code to use `SOCKE*` or `E*` macro depending on
context.

- Add `SOCKE*` macros that map to either winsock2 or POSIX error codes.
  And use them with `SOCKERRNO` or in contexts requiring
  platform-dependent socket error codes.

  This fixes `E*` uses which were supposed be POSIX values, not `WSA*`
  socket errors, on Windows:
  - lib/curl_multibyte.c
  - lib/curl_threads.c
  - lib/idn.c
  - lib/vtls/gtls.c
  - lib/vtls/rustls.c
  - src/tool_cb_wrt.c
  - src/tool_dirhie.c

- Ban `E*` codes having a `SOCKE*` mapping, via checksrc.
  Authored-by: Daniel Stenberg

- Add exceptions for `E*` codes used in file I/O, or other contexts
  requiring POSIX error codes.

Also:
- ftp: fix missing `SOCKEACCES` mapping for Windows.
- add `SOCKENOMEM` for `Curl_getaddrinfo()` via `asyn-thread.c`.
- tests/server/sockfilt: fix to set `SOCKERRNO` in local `select()`
  override on Windows.
- lib/inet_ntop: fix to return `WSAEINVAL` on Windows, where `ENOSPC` is
  used on other platforms. To simulate Windows' built-in `inet_ntop()`,
  as tested on a Win10 machine.
  Note:
  - WINE returns `STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER` = `0xC000000D`.
  - Microsoft documentation says it returns `WSA_INVALID_PARAMETER`
    (= `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`) 87:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/win32/api/ws2tcpip/nf-ws2tcpip-inet_ntop#return-value
- lib/inet_ntop: drop redundant `CURL_SETERRNO(ENOSPC)`.
  `inet_ntop4()` already sets it before returning `NULL`.
- replace stray `WSAEWOULDBLOCK` with `USE_WINSOCK` macro to detect
  winsock2.
- move existing `SOCKE*` mappings from `tests/server` to
  `curl_setup_once.h`.
- add missing `EINTR`, `EINVAL` constants for WinCE.

checksrc: introduce 'banfunc' to ban specific functions
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.
