Warner Losh f9002b8561 awk: bring in vendor branch from upstream 20210727
Changes since the last import:

July 27, 2021:
	As per IEEE Std 1003.1-2008, -F "str" is now consistent with
	-v FS="str" when str is null. Thanks to Warner Losh.

July 24, 2021:
	Fix readrec's definition of a record. This fixes an issue
	with NetBSD's RS regular expression support that can cause
	an infinite read loop. Thanks to Miguel Pineiro Jr.

	Fix regular expression RS ^-anchoring. RS ^-anchoring needs to
	know if it is reading the first record of a file. This change
	restores a missing line that was overlooked when porting NetBSD's
	RS regex functionality. Thanks to Miguel Pineiro Jr.

	Fix size computation in replace_repeat() for special case
	REPEAT_WITH_Q. Thanks to Todd C. Miller.

Also, for the first time, import all the tests.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
