load of _l suffixed versions of various standard library functions that use
the global locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter. Also
adds support for per-thread locales. This work was funded by the FreeBSD
Foundation.
Please test any code you have that uses the C standard locale functions!

for wide characters locales in the argument range >= 0x80 - they may
return false positives.
Example 1: for UTF-8 locale we currently have:
iswspace(0xA0)==1 and isspace(0xA0)==1
(because iswspace() and isspace() are the same code)
but must have
iswspace(0xA0)==1 and isspace(0xA0)==0
(because there is no such character and all others in the range
0x80..0xff for the UTF-8 locale, it keeps ASCII only in the single byte
range because our internal wchar_t representation for UTF-8 is UCS-4).
Example 2: for all wide character locales isalpha(arg) when arg > 0xFF may
return false positives (must be 0).
(because iswalpha() and isalpha() are the same code)
This change address this issue separating single byte and wide ctype
and also fix iswascii() (currently iswascii() is broken for
arguments > 0xFF).
This change is 100% binary compatible with old binaries.

. Replace inclusion of sys/param.h to sys/cdefs.h and sys/types.h where
appropriate.
. move _*_init() prototypes to mblocal.h, and remove these prototypes
from .c files
. use _none_init() in __setrunelocale() instead of duplicating code
. move __mb* variables from table.c to none.c allowing us to not to
export _none_*() externs, and appropriately remove them from mblocal.h

These convert plain ASCII characters in-line, making them only slightly
slower than the single-byte ("NONE" encoding) version when processing
ASCII strings.
low bound, and the number of bytes remaining instead of storing the
raw byte sequence and deriving them every time mbrtowc() is called.
This is much faster -- about twice as fast in some crude benchmarks.
mbrtowc() and wcrtomb() directly. GB18030, GBK and UTF2 are left
unconverted; GB18030 will be done eventually, but GBK and UTF2 may just
be removed, as they are subsets of GB18030 and UTF-8 respectively.
"UTF2" method. Although UTF-8 and the old UTF2 encoding are compatible
for 16-bit characters, the new UTF-8 implementation is much more strict
about rejecting malformed input and also handles the full 31 bit range
of characters.
