* add Wcscoll() and Wcsxfrm() ICU locale backend
* provide implementations of wcscoll() and wcsxfrm() that are using
the respective methods of the locale backend
* make room in mbstate_t for containing an ICU-converter's state
(well, in fact the whole converter object)
* adjust libroot's locale add-on to clone converters into a given
mbstate_t directly
* adjust ICUThreadLocalStorageValue to contain the converter pointer
instead of a converter-ID (if the converter is related to an
mbstate_t, it points into the mbstate_t).
* adjust users of converters to directly use converter pointers
instead of ICUConverterRef
* drop now unused ICUConverterManager and ICUConverterRef
* update gcc4 optional package
This brings our multibyte implementation into a fully working state,
both non-ascii and non-8-bit characters can now be handled normally
in the Terminal, i.e. this finally fixes#6276.
N.B.: Since the size of mbstate_t has changed, everything (including
the compiler!) needs to be rebuilt.
* add MultibyteStringToWchar() to ICU locale backend
* implement mbsrtowcs() and mbsnrtowcs() on top of
MultibyteStringToWchar()
* drop respective glibc files
* update copyrights of locale backend files
Multibyte-support has been rewritten to use ICU as backend.
While this does not necessarily work properly in every aspect
(e.g. the shell still has [different] problems with multibyte-
characters now), it does fix#6263 and #7700.
* add actual converter methods MultibyteToWchar() and WcharToMultibyte()
to locale backend and implement them in the ctype subpart
* add management code for maintaining converters referenced by mbstate_t
(now at least <std> and <offset> are supported properly)
* instead of creating a TimeZone object whenever needed, we now
create it in tzset() and keep it around
* add tests for TZ to locale_test

make some more perl tests happy.
* no longer expect a ICU timezone ID in the TZ environment variable,
but only expect this format if the TZ-value is starting with ':'
* accept "standard" TZ-values like "EST5" (of which only "EST" is
relevant to us) - if such a value is specified, we hardcode the
timezone name to the given value, no matter how ICU calls it
* adjust tests accordingly

* protect against invocations of ctype-macros/-functions with negative
character indices by mirroring the corresponding values at negative
array indices (the legal access range of __ctype_b is now [-128..255])
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38708 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* avoid trying to overwrite values of a constant structure when
updating the numeric locale data values used by glibc
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38623 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* _kern_[sg]et_timezone() now accepts/passes out the timezone name, too
* adjust Time preflet and clockconfig to pass the timezone name into the kernel
when calling _kern_set_timezone()
* ajust implementation of tzset() to fetch the timezone name from the kernel
via _kern_get_timezone() instead of reading 'libroot_timezone_info'
* the Time preflet no longer writes 'libroot_timezone_info'

* no longer keep a separate time-backend, since the implementation needs to
access (data of) the locale backend anyway
* moved more stuff from localtime_fading_out.c to localtime.cpp
* added respective tests to locale_test
* added two more tests copied from glibc, test_time.c and tst-mktime.c
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38162 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* support invocation of ctype/wctype macros with EOF/WEOF (-1), which would
access more or less random memory before - I don't know why this worked
more or less reliably for the POSIX locale, but it didn't for any other
