Checking the linker compatibility with extranous `ImageLoad()` calls is
possible, but unnecessary, since the modules are either already loaded
or loaded shortly afterwards, so that we can get the required
information directly from the module handles. And actually, doing
`ImageLoad()` as well as `LoadLibrary()` leaves a tiny room for a race
condition, because both functions will lookup the module in the search
path, so there is no *guarantee* that both are dealing with the same
module. Dropping the `ImageLoad()` calls also has the advantage to no
longer face the issue reported in bug #79557. A very minor additional
advantage is that we no longer have to link against Imagehlp.dll.
Furthermore, there is no need to check for CRT compatibility multiple
times, so we can simplify the signature of `php_win32_crt_compatible`,
and at the same time clean up main.c a bit.
These changes require to change the signature of the exported
`php_win32_image_compatible` and `php_win32_crt_compatible` functions,
which now expect a `HMODULE` and nothing, respectively, instead of the
module name.
This hardens the dynamic module loading by checking the linker compatibility
between the core and the dynamic module. This likely should be extended
for the CRT as well, as 2015, 2017 and 2019 versions of Visual Studio
all have same DLL name for the CRT.
This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.
The C89 standard and later defines the `<string.h>` header as part of
the standard headers [1] and on current systems it is always present.
Code included also `<strings.h>` header as an alterinative in some
files. This kind of check was relevant on some older systems where the
`<strings.h>` file included definitions for the C89 compliant
`<string.h>`. Today such alternative check is not required anymore. The
`<strings.h>` file is part of the POSIX definition these days.
Also Autoconf suggests doing this and relying on C89 or above [2] and [3].
This patch also cleans few unused `<strings.h>` inclusions in the libmbfl.

The FormatMessage API needs to LocalFree the delivered error messages.
In cases where messages are delivered in non ASCII compatible encoding,
the messages might be unreadable. This aligns the error message encoding
with the encoding settings in PHP, the focus is UTF-8 as default.
Initialize error buffer
Avoid code duplication
The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
Allow extension name as INI 'extension=' and dl() argument
No BC break, as file name is still accepted.
When using the '-z' command line option (CLI/CGI), an absolute file name must still be provided (nothing changed here)
Change comments in example INI files
If this does not break the Unix system somehow, I'll be amazed. This should get most of it out, apologies for any errors this may cause on non-Windows ends which I cannot test atm.
