Declutter the ifdefs in socketpair.h. Introduce Curl_wakeup_*()
function that encapsulate the details about how the socketpair
is implemented.
This moves the EVENTFD specials from the using code into socketpair
implemenatation, avoiding duplications in three places.
Closes#20340
- asyn-thrdd.c: scope an include.
- apply more clang-format suggestions.
- tidy-up PP guard comments.
- delete empty line from the top of headers.
- add empty line after `curl_setup.h` include where missing.
- fix indent.
- CODE_STYLE.md: add `strcpy`.
Follow-up to 8636ad55df#20088
- lib1901.c: drop unnecessary line.
Follow-up to 436e67f65b#20076Closes#20070
- curl_range: replace `sendf.h` with direct header dependency
`curl_trc.h`.
- drop `curl/curl.h` includes from internal sourcees in favor of the
include made from `curl_setup.h`. Replace it with the latter where
it's the only include.
- include `curl_setup.h` before using macros, where missing.
- drop redundant `stdlib.h`, `string.h` includes, in favor of
`curl_setup_once.h` including them.
- drop redundant `limits.h` in favor of `curl_setup.h` including it.
- fake_addrinfo.h: fix typo in comment.
- curl_setup_once.h: drop `stdio.h` in favor of earlier include in
`curl_setup.h`.
- drop stray, unused, `stddef.h` includes.
- memdebug.h: add missing `stddef.h` include. (relying on accidental
includes via other headers before this patch.)
- stddef.h: document why it's included.
- strerr: drop `curl/mprintf.h` in favor of `curl/curl.h` including it
via `curl_setup.h`.
Closes#20027
Enable eventfd code consistently when both `HAVE_EVENTFD` and
`HAVE_SYS_EVENTFD_H` macros are defined.
Before this patch `HAVE_EVENTFD` guarded it alone, though the code
also required the header, which was guarded by `HAVE_SYS_EVENTFD_H`.
These should normally be detected in pairs. When they aren't, omit using
`eventfd()` to avoid calling it without a known matching header.
If this disables valid cases (e.g. some system declares this function
via a different header), feature detection and the code may be extended
for those cases. If these are known to come in pairs, always, another
option is detect them both at build stage, and forward a single macro
to C.

After fixing support for x32, unlock eventfd support for all CPUs.
Before this patch, it was explicitly limited to 64-bit ones.
You can disable eventfs manually on systems where it's auto-detected:
- cmake: `-DHAVE_EVENTFD=0`
- configure: `export ac_cv_func_eventfd=0`

Use these words and casing more consistently across text, comments and
one curl tool output:
AIX, ALPN, ANSI, BSD, Cygwin, Darwin, FreeBSD, GitHub, HP-UX, Linux,
macOS, MS-DOS, MSYS, MinGW, NTLM, POSIX, Solaris, UNIX, Unix, Unicode,
WINE, WebDAV, Win32, winbind, WinIDN, Windows, Windows CE, Winsock.
Mostly OS names and a few more.
Also a couple of other minor text fixups.

Currently, we use `pipe` for `wakeup_create`, which requires ***two***
file descriptors. Furthermore, given its complexity inside, `pipe` is a
bit heavyweight for just a simple event wait/notify mechanism.
`eventfd` would be a more suitable solution for this kind of scenario,
kernel also advocates for developers to use `eventfd` instead of `pipe`
in some simple use cases:
Applications can use an eventfd file descriptor instead of a pipe
(see pipe(2) in all cases where a pipe is used simply to signal
events. The kernel overhead of an eventfd file descriptor is much
lower than that of a pipe, and only one file descriptor is required
(versus the two required for a pipe).
This change adds the new backend of `eventfd` for `wakeup_create` and
uses it where available, eliminating the overhead of `pipe`. Also, it
optimizes the `wakeup_create` to eliminate the system calls that make
file descriptors non-blocking by moving the logic of setting
non-blocking flags on file descriptors to `socketpair.c` and using
`SOCK_NONBLOCK` for `socketpair(2)`, `EFD_NONBLOCK` for `eventfd(2)`.

Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
