clang-tidy: sync argument names in prototype and definition
Discovered with clang-tidy checker
`readability-inconsistent-declaration-parameter-name`.

Also:
- do not enforce the above because of inconsistencies still present
  between public API prototypes and definitions. (Also betwen man page
  protos, and man page examples, and other parts of the code, e.g.
  `easy` vs `curl` vs `d` vs `handle`) Perhaps subject for a future
  effort:
  https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/22166472728/job/64094691653
- enable and fix `readability-named-parameter` where missing.

build: tidy up and simplify setmode() detection and use
- move macro to `curl_setup.h` (from curlx), and rename.
  It's required by src, test servers, libtests. Also used by unit/tunit,
  (which is fixable but this patch doesn't touch it.)
- special-case it for Windows/Cygwin/MS-DOS.
- build: drop `setmode()`/`_setmode()` detection.
  This also avoids detecting the different `setmode()` on BSDs,
  and a lot of complexity and overhead.
- use `CURL_O_BINARY`.

build: require POSIX strdup()
Stop detecting this function and drop the local fallback.

Let us know if this update is causing an issue.

Notes:
- on Windows `_strdup()` is required instead.
- `strdup()/_strdup()` were required before this patch to build one of
  the examples: `block_ip`.
- `strdup()/_strdup()` were required in 8.18.0 and earlier to build

curl requires `stdint.h` from C99, and no longer builds without it since
v8.18.0 (after dropping VS2008 support). Assume it's available, drop
feature checks.

Also:
- drop duplicate `stdint.h` includes.
- introduce internal `HAVE_UINTPTR_T`, enabled by default.
- OS400: disable `HAVE_UINTPTR_T`.

build: fully omit verbose strings and code when disabled
When the compiler supports C99.

- map logging functions to macro stubs when verbose logging is disabled
  and the compiler is C99. Make sure these stubs silence unused variable
  warnings for non-variadic arguments.
  Before this patch they mapped to function stubs, the same codepath
  used for C89 compiler in this configuration.

- introduce new macros to tell the compiler which code to include
  when verbose code is active, or inactive:

  - `CURLVERBOSE`: defined when verbose code is active.
    To enclose blocks of code only used for verbose logging.

  - `VERBOSE(statement);`:
    compile statement when verbose code is active.
    To mark code lines only used for verbose logging.

  - `NOVERBOSE(statement);`:
    compile statement when verbose code is inactive.
    To suppress warnings for arguments passed to logging functions via
    printf masks, e.g. `NOVERBOSE((void)ipaddress);`, yet keeping
    the warning in verbose builds.

  Note these macros are not the same as `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS`.
  Verbose code is always active in C89 mode (without variadic macro
  support).

- drop existing uses of `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS` where redundant,
  or replace with the above macros. Ending up reducing the number of
  `#ifdef`s, and also the number of lines.

4890074e68 winapi: use FormatMessageA instead of FormatMessageW
Use FormatMessageA() to get the error message as multibyte-character
string (local codepage) directly, instead of using FormatMessageW()
and then convert the string from Unicode (UTF-16) to multi-byte (local
codepage) manually.

Prior to this change we used FormatMessageW + conversion because some
Windows CE did not have FormatMessageA. Since curl no longer supports
Windows CE, FormatMessageA can be used.

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: merge TrackMemory (CURLDEBUG) into debug-enabled option
Drop separate `TrackMemory` (aka `CURLDEBUG`) debug feature.

After recent changes (thread-safety,
193cb00ce9, and updates leading up to
it), `TrackMemory` is unlikely to cause build or runtime issues.

To simplify builds and debug options, enable `TrackMemory`
unconditionally for debug-enabled (aka `DEBUGBUILD`) builds. Before
this patch, this was already the default, with an option to disable
it, or enable it in non-debug-enabled builds.

Note, in practice these two debug options already went hand in hand. It
was not possible to toggle them separately for a long time due to bugs,
before 59dc9f7e69 (2024-05-28) fixed it.

This patch also removes/deprecates separate knobs and feature flags for
`TrackMemory`:
- autotools: `--enable-curldebug`/`--disable-curldebug`
- cmake: `-DENABLE_CURLDEBUG=ON`/`OFF`
- C macro: `CURLDEBUG`
- libcurl: `CURL_VERSION_CURLDEBUG` symbol deprecated in favor
  of `CURL_VERSION_DEBUG`. They always return the same value after this
  patch.

Also:
- drop `TrackMemory` from `curl -V` output.
- rename internal `CURLDEBUG` macro to `CURL_MEMDEBUG` internally.
  To avoid confusion with `DEBUGBUILD`, but to keep guarding
  `TrackMemory`-related internals for readability.
- runtests: bind `TrackMemory` to debug feature. Keep it a separate
  test feature requirement, for clarity.
- CI: drop test builds for combinations of the two options.
- GHA/linux: no longer disable TrackMemory in the TSAN job.

windows: bump minimum to Vista (from XP)
After this patch curl requires targeting Vista or newer, and a toolchain
with Vista support.

Supported MSVC compilers (VS2010+) all support Vista:
- VS2012+ target Win8 (or later) by default.
- VS2010 targets Win7 by default.

Supported mingw-w64 versions (v3+) all support Vista:
- mingw-w64 v9+ target Win10 by default.
- mingw-w64 v8 and older target Server 2003 (~XP) by default.
  After this patch it may be necessary to override the default Windows
  target version to Vista (or newer) via:
  autotools: `CPPFLAGS=-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0600`
  cmake: `-DCURL_TARGET_WINDOWS_VERSION=0x0600`
- mingw-w64 v6+ allow changing the default at toolchain build-time.

Notes:
- For non-MSVC, non-mingw-w64 toolchains, `if_nametoindex` needs to be
  allowlisted in `curl_setup.h`, if they do support it.

curlx: add curlx_rename(), fix to support long filenames on Windows
Move existing `Curl_rename()` `rename()` wrapper from lib to
curlx/fopen, and make it a curlx macro/function. To allow using
the local worker function to fixup long filenames on Windows.

Then fix the Windows-specific rename implementation to support long
filenames. This operation may happen when using a cookie jar, HSTS cache
or alt-svc cache, via libcurl or the curl tool.

Before this patch, when passing a long filename to the above options,
a `<random>.tmp` file was left on the disk without renaming it to the
filename passed to curl. There was also 1 second delay for each
attempted rename operation.

Also:
- checksrc: ban raw `rename()` and `MoveFileEx*()` functions.
- Note: `Curl_rename()` returned 1 on failure before this patch, while
  `curlx_rename()` returns -1 after, to match POSIX `rename()`.

windows: fix CreateFile() calls to support long filenames
It makes them work in Schannel's CA bundle loader, and curl tool's
set/get file timestamp operations (e.g. in `-R`/`--remote-time`). Also
to match file open operations, that already support long filenames.

E.g. when using `--remote-time`, fixing:
```
Warning: Failed to set filetime 1741363917 on outfile: CreateFile failed:
Warning: GetLastError 0x00000003
```

The special long filename logic is necessary to support Windows releases
prior to Windows 10 v1607. With the latter, it's possible to opt-in to
this behavior via a manifest setting. Note that Windows itself also needs
to opt-in to support this. Finally note that curl itself needs passing
`--globoff` to let long filenames through, pending #20044 and #20046.

curlx: move Curl_gmtime(), use gmtime_s() on Windows
Move `Curl_gmtime()` to curlx and rename to `curlx_gmtime()`. Then call
the internal wrapper also from the curl tool, to avoid using the banned
`gmtime()` directly, and using better, thread-safe alternatives when
available.

Windows `gmtime_s()` requires mingw-w64 v4+ or MSVC. Use local
workaround to also support mingw-w64 v3. `gmtime_s()` also makes
defining `_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS` unnecessary.

Also:
- lib: drop unused `parsedate.h` includes.
- drop redundant cast from `gmtime_r()` result.
- autotools: reverse condition in the proto detection to avoid
  misleading readers. (the condition plays no role in detection.)
- note Windows XP's default `msvcrt.dll` doesn't offer secure CRT APIs.
  XP likely needs a newer version of this DLL, or may not run.

curlx: limit use of system allocators to the minimum possible
Clone a multibye conversion function into curlx/fopen, and use that
local copy from curlx/fopen functions. Adjust allocators in curlx/fopen
to use curl's in normal builds, and system allocators in TrackMemory
builds to avoid recursion.

This allows to switch curlx/multibyte functions to curl allocators in
all configurations, as they are no longer called by curlx/fopen, and
a recursive call can no longer happen.

After this patch the system allocator is only used in TrackMemory
Windows builds, within curlx `fopen`, `freopen`, `stat` and `open`
functions.

Also:
- test 1, 440, 767: raise allocation limitsto fit the extra allocations
  in Windows Unicode builds.
- replace all uses of `curlx_unicodefree()` macro with `curlx_free()`
  across the codebase.
- curlx/multibyte: delete `curlx_unicodefree()`.
- ldap: join Windows and non-Windows codepaths that became
  identical after moving from `curlx_unicodefree()` to `curlx_free()`.
- vauth: drop a strdup from standard to curl allocator since
  the original allocation is now already done by curl's.
- tool_doswin: drop now superfluous strdup from `FindWin32CACert()`.
- memanalyzer.pm: sync weirdo `calloc` log message with `malloc`'s.

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.

curlx/fopen: replace open CRT functions their with _s counterparts (Windows)
- `_wopen`        -> `_wsopen_s`
- `_open`, `open` -> `_sopen_s`
- `_wfopen`       -> `_wfopen_s`
- `fopen`         -> `fopen_s`
- `_wfreopen`     -> `_wfreopen_s`
- `freopen`       -> `freopen_s`

For better error handling and for using the CRT functions recommended
via warnings suppressed by `_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS`.

Also:
- add missing `freopen_s()` prototype when building with mingw-w64 <5.
  https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/mingw-w64/ci/a5d824654cdc57f6eac1bb581b078986f3eb6856/
- tests/server: replace `open()` in the signal handler with `_sopen_s()`
  on Windows.
- tests/server: reduce scope of a checksrc exception to a single line.
- checksrc: ban replaced functions.
