Add ZVAL_CHAR/RETVAL_CHAR/RETURN_CHAR as a shortcut for using
ZVAL_INTERNED_STRING and ZSTR_CHAR.
Add zend_string_init_fast() as a helper for the empty string /
one char interned string / zend_string_init() pattern.
Also add corresponding ZVAL_STRINGL_FAST etc macros.
Closes GH-5684.
We already document that this is the case, but currently it's only
true if setlocale() has not been called. Make sure ctype_string is
always NULL, even with an explicit "C" locale call, so we can
more efficiently check whether we are in the "C" locale.
Closes GH-5542.
Provides the last PCRE error as a human-readable message, similar
to functionality existing in other extensions, such as
json_last_error_msg().
Closes GH-5185.
PCRE only validates the string starting from the start offset
(minus maximum look-behind, but let's ignore that), so we can
only remember that the string is fully valid UTF-8 is the original
start offset is zero.
We need not just the whole string to be UTF-8, but the start
position to be on a character boundary as well. Check this by
looking for a continuation byte.
A new function `pcre_get_compiled_regex_cache_ex()` is introduced,
which allows to compile regexp pattern using the "C" locale instead
of a current locale.
This will be needed to replace setlocale() usage in fileinfo,
which is not thread-safe.
Print a more informative message that indicates that this is
likely a permission issue, and also indicate that pcre.jit=0
can be used to work around it.
Also automatically disable the JIT, so that this message is
only shown once.

And convert some object to string conversion related recoverable
fatal errors into Error exceptions.
Improve exception safety of internal code performing string
conversions.
The `<loccale.h>` header file, setlocale, and localeconv are part of the
standard C89 [1] and on current systems can be used unconditionally.
Since PHP 7.4 requires at least C89 or greater, the `HAVE_LOCALE_H`,
`HAVE_SETLOCALE`, and `HAVE_LOCALECONV` symbols defined by Autoconf in
configure.ac [2] can be ommitted and simplifed.
The bundled libmagic (file) has also been patched already in version
5.35 and up in upstream location so when it will be patched also in
php-src the check for locale.h header is still left in the configure.ac
and in windows headers definition file.

There will only be one request on the CLI SAPI, so there is no
advantage to having a persistent PCRE cache. Using a non-persistent
cache allows us to use arbitrary strings as cache keys.
