While this doesn't save a huge amount of runtime, it still seems worth
doing, especially since I realized that the data copying I did in my first
draft was quite unnecessary. In this version, once we have the results
cached, getting them back for re-use is really very cheap.
Also, remove the hard-wired limitation to not consider wctype.h results for
character codes above 255. It turns out that we can't push the limit as
far up as I'd originally hoped, because the regex colormap code is not
efficient enough to cope very well with character classes containing many
thousand letters, which a Unicode locale is entirely capable of producing.
Still, we can push it up to U+7FF (which I chose as the limit of 2-byte
UTF8 characters), which will at least make Eastern Europeans happy pending
a better solution. Thus, this commit resolves the specific complaint in
bug #6457, but not the more general issue that letters of non-western
alphabets are mostly not recognized as matching [[:alpha:]].

Sync our regex code with upstream changes since last time we did this,
which was Tcl 8.5.0 (see commit df1e965e12cdd48c11057ee6e15346ee2b8b02f5).
There are no functional changes here; the main point is just to lay down
a commit-log marker that somebody has looked at this recently, and to do
what we can to keep the two codebases comparable.

This involves getting the character classification and case-folding
functions in the regex library to use the collations infrastructure.
Most of this work had been done already in connection with the upper/lower
and LIKE logic, so it was a simple matter of transposition.
While at it, split out these functions into a separate source file
regc_pg_locale.c, so that they can be correctly labeled with the Postgres
project's license rather than the Scriptics license. These functions are
100% Postgres-written code whereas what remains in regc_locale.c is still
mostly not ours, so lumping them both under the same copyright notice was
getting more and more misleading.

locale-dependent character classification properly when the database encoding
is UTF8.
The previous coding worked okay in single-byte encodings, or in any case for
ASCII characters, but failed entirely on multibyte characters. The fix
assumes that the <wctype.h> functions use Unicode code points as the wchar
representation for Unicode, ie, wchar matches pg_wchar.
This is only a partial solution, since we're still stupid about non-ASCII
characters in multibyte encodings other than UTF8. The practical effect
of that is limited, however, since those cases are generally Far Eastern
glyphs for which concepts like case-folding don't apply anyway. Certainly
all or nearly all of the field reports of problems have been about UTF8.
A more general solution would require switching to the platform's wchar
representation for all regex operations; which is possible but would have
substantial disadvantages. Let's try this and see if it's sufficient in
practice.

was Tcl 8.4.8. The main changes are to remove the never-fully-implemented
code for multi-character collating elements, and to const-ify some stuff a
bit more fully. In combination with the recent security patch, this commit
brings us into line with Tcl 8.5.0.
Note that I didn't make any effort to duplicate a lot of cosmetic changes
that they made to bring their copy into line with their own style
guidelines, such as adding braces around single-line IF bodies. Most of
those we either had done already (such as ANSI-fication of function headers)
or there is no point because pgindent would undo the change anyway.

comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

conversion of basic ASCII letters. Remove all uses of strcasecmp and
strncasecmp in favor of new functions pg_strcasecmp and pg_strncasecmp;
remove most but not all direct uses of toupper and tolower in favor of
pg_toupper and pg_tolower. These functions use the same notions of
case folding already developed for identifier case conversion. I left
the straight locale-based folding in place for situations where we are
just manipulating user data and not trying to match it to built-in
strings --- for example, the SQL upper() function is still locale
dependent. Perhaps this will prove not to be what's wanted, but at
the moment we can initdb and pass regression tests in Turkish locale.

Also, make :alnum: character class directly dependent on isalnum()
rather than guessing.

(extracted from Tcl 8.4.1 release, as Henry still hasn't got round to
making it a separate library). This solves a performance problem for
multibyte, as well as upgrading our regexp support to match recent Tcl
and nearly match recent Perl.
