This avoids a crash in cases where the list of candidate encodings is so huge
that alloca would fail. Such crashes have been observed when the list of
encodings was larger than around 208,000 entries.
Thanks to the GitHub user vi3tL0u1s (Viet Hoang Luu) for reporting this issue.
The MacJapanese legacy text encoding has a very unusual property; it is possible for a string
to encode more codepoints than it has bytes. In some corner cases, this resulted in a situation
where the implementation code for mb_substr() would allocate a buffer of size -1. As you can
probably imagine, that doesn't end well.
Fixes GH-20832.
GB18030-2022 is the current official standard, superseding the previous 2005 and 2000 versions. It is essential for modern Chinese text processing for the following reasons:
1. Superset Relationship: GB18030 is a strict superset of CP936 (GBK) and EUC-CN (GB2312). Using GB18030 as the detection target covers all characters in these older encodings while enabling support for a much wider range of characters.
2. Extended Character Coverage: The 2022 standard includes significant updates, covering over 87,000 characters. It adds support for CJK Extensions (C, D, E, F, G) and updates mappings for rare characters that were previously mapped to the Private Use Area (PUA) in the 2005 version. This is critical for correctly handling names containing rare characters (e.g., in banking or government data).
3. Backward Compatibility: It is safe to promote GB18030-2022 as the preferred encoding. Files encoded in EUC-CN or CP936 are valid GB18030 streams.
This PR adds GB18030-2022 to the default encoding list for CN.
This API can't handle references, yet everyone keeps forgetting that it
can't and that you should DEREF upfront. Fix every type of this issue
once and for all by moving the reference handling to this Zend API.

This allows us to avoid a call to `zend_ini_str` which took 6% of the
profile on my i7-4790 for a call to `http_build_query`. Now we can just
grab the value from the globals.
In other files this can avoid some length recomputations.
Conversion of floating point to integer values is undefined if the
integral part of the float value cannot be represented by the integer
type. We need to cater to that explicitly (in a manner similar to
`zend_dval_to_lval_cap()`).
Closes GH-17689.
Besides that it is not needed, it is not proper C, and Clang warns that
"forward references to 'enum' types are a Microsoft extension"
(`-Wmicrosoft-enum-forward-reference`).
The behaviour is weird in the sense that the reference must get
unwrapped. What ended up happening is that when destroying the old
reference the sources list was not cleaned properly. We add handling for
that. Normally we would use use ZEND_TRY_ASSIGN_STRINGL but that doesn't
work here as it would keep the reference and change values through
references (see bug #26639).
