Main changes:
* Vim-style expandtab option
* Provides Turkish translation
* Backspace now deletes \ rather than being escaped
* T during motion commands is now VI-compatible
* Encoding related fixes, such as UTF-8 detection
* Fixed a number of memory management issues

Lots of code refactoring, simplification and cleanup.
Lots of new unit-tests providing much higher code coverage.
All courtesy of rillig at netbsd.
Other significant changes:
o new read-only variable .SHELL which provides the path of the shell
used to run scripts (as defined by the .SHELL target).
o variable parsing detects more errors.
o new debug option -dl: LINT mode, does the equivalent of := for all
variable assignments so that file and line number are reported for
variable parse errors.
Due to a copy/paste error, the "getacl" field was duplicated, but only in
XML or JSON mode, not in txt mode.

In the util-linux version of script, it will always exit with succes.
Except when run with -e, in which case it will have the exit value of
the child. BSD Script already uses the child's exit value for its exit
value. Some config and other helper scripts depend on being able to
specify -e. Accept it for compatibility since we'll already to the
right thing, but otherwise we ignore it.
When diff is invoked with -l it will spawn the pr(1) program.
In some circumpstances the pr(1) was not properly killed when diff program
exits.

By default, lockf(1) opens its lock file O_RDONLY|O_EXLOCK. On NFS, if the
file already exists, this is split into opening the file read-only and then
requesting an exclusive lock -- and the second step fails because NFS does
not permit exclusive locking on files which are opened read-only.
The new -w option changes the open flags to O_WRONLY|O_EXLOCK, allowing it
to work on NFS -- at the cost of not working if the file cannot be opened
for writing.
(Whether the traditional BSD behaviour of allowing exclusive locks to be
obtained on a file which cannot be opened for writing is a good idea is
perhaps questionable since it may allow less-privileged users to perform
a local denial of service; however this behaviour has been present for a
long time and changing it now seems like it would cause problems.)

The most awkward bit in this patch is the bootstrapping of m4:
We can't simply use the host version of m4 since that is not compatible
with the flags passed by lex (at least on macOS, possibly also on Linux).
Therefore we need to bootstrap m4, but lex needs m4 to build and m4 also
depends on lex (which needs m4 to generate any files). To work around this
cyclic dependency we can build a bootstrap version of m4 (with pre-generated
files) then use that to build the real m4.
This patch also changes the xz/unxz/dd tools to always use the host version
since the version in the source tree cannot easily be bootstrapped on macOS
or Linux.

Every version of patch since the first one posted to mod.sources in 1985 have
included a heuristic for coping with the state of email messaging at the
time. This heuristic would add up to 4 blank lines to a patch if it thought it
needed it. The trouble is, though this causes at least one bug.
The bug in my case is that if you have a context diff whose last hunk only
deletes 3 or fewer lines, then if you try to reverse apply it with -R, it will
fail. The reason for this is the heuristic builds an internal representation
that includes those blank lines. However, it should really replicate the lines
from the pattern lines line it would any other time, not assume they are blank
lines. Removing this heuristic will prevent patch from misapplying the lines
removed after applying a 'fuzz' factor to the previous blank line in the file. I
believe this will only affect 'new-style' 4.3BSD context diffs and not the
older-style 4.2BSD diffs and plain, non-context diffs. It won't affect any of
the newer formats, since they don't use the 'omitted' construct in the same way.
Since this heuristic was put into patch at a time when email / etc ate trailing
white space on a regular basis, and since it's clear that this heuristic is the
wrong thing to do at least some of the time, it's better to remove it
entirely. It's not been needed for maybe 20 years since patch files are not
usually corrupted. If there are a small number of patch files that would benefit
from this corruption fixing, those already-currupt patches can be fixed by the
addition of blank lines. I'd wager that no one will ever come to me with an
example of a once-working patch file that breaks with this change. However, I
have 2 patches from the first 195 patches to 2.11BSD that are affected by this
bug, suggesting that the relative frequency of the issue has changed
signficantly since the original heuristic was put into place.

My change to allow bootstrapping pwd_mkdb (r363992) resulted in i386 build
failures because the bootstrap header was being included in non-bootstrap chpass.
Dropping the no longer required pwd_mkdb include path from chpass fixes
the build, but to be certain that the failure doesn't get re-introduced,
I've also moved the bootstrap pwd.h into a subdirectory so that adding
-I${SRCTOP}/usr.sbin/pwd_mkdb doesn't pull it in.

libregex is incomplete, but it's a bit less buggy than the in-base
libgnuregex and mostly OK.
While here, rename -DIWTH_GNU -> -DWITH_GNU_COMPAT; the option implies
that we're compatible with the GNU counterpart, not that we're including GNU
anything.
The tests compare the command output (including of error cases) with the
expected output and exit code.
Not all tests are executed, since some expect to have a known good bc and
dc binary installed and compare results of large amounts of generated data
being processed by both versions to test for regressions.
This version omits the printing of a copyright header in interactive mode
and the dc command now exits after execution of the commands passed via -e
or -f instead of switching to interactive mode. To pass further commands
via STDIN when dc has been invoked with -e or -f, add "-f -" to the
parameter list.
r363679 is in-fact the future change referenced by the comment, helpfully
left and forgotten by kevans. Instead of just silently not matching, we
should now be erroring out with vigor.
It's currently unclear to me how this could have worked previously; \n here
is not a literal newline but actual '\' 'n', and was getting passed to the
underlying regex engine as such. regex(3) does not translate this to a
newline, and this became an error because we don't really allow escaping
of arbitrary ordinary characters anymore.
Run the pattern strings through printf to make sure we're dealing with real
newlines before passing them through to atf_check, which ultimately feeds
them directly to regcomp(3).
This fix is different than that will be needed for sed, in that this is the
proper way to inject newlines into search strings as long as regex(3)
won't combine \ + n as folks might expect.

implementation. The old description was left over from the 4.4 BSD Lite
import in 1994, and was a bit misleading (not all arches use simulated
reference bits, some implement reference tracking in hardware).
In 2018, r338094 removed the commented-out code for supporting the -t
command line option which had been present since the BSD 4.4 Lite import,
but was never implemented for freebsd.
This does the same for the man page.
