This commit adds a new flag RUBY_TYPED_EMBEDDABLE that allows the data
of a TypedData object to be embedded after the object itself. This will
improve cache locality and allow us to save the 8 byte data pointer.

Add a new API rb_profile_thread_frames(), which is essentialy a
per-thread version of rb_profile_frames().
While the original rb_profile_frames() always returns results about the
current active thread obtained by GET_EC(), this new API takes a Thread
to be profiled as an argument.
This should come in handy when profiling I/O-bound programs such as
webapps, since this new API allows us to learn about Threads performing
I/O (which do not have the GVL).
Profiling worker threads (such as Sidekiq workers) may be another
application.
Implements [Feature #10602]

This patch introduce M:N thread scheduler for Ractor system.
In general, M:N thread scheduler employs N native threads (OS threads)
to manage M user-level threads (Ruby threads in this case).
On the Ruby interpreter, 1 native thread is provided for 1 Ractor
and all Ruby threads are managed by the native thread.
From Ruby 1.9, the interpreter uses 1:1 thread scheduler which means
1 Ruby thread has 1 native thread. M:N scheduler change this strategy.
Because of compatibility issue (and stableness issue of the implementation)
main Ractor doesn't use M:N scheduler on default. On the other words,
threads on the main Ractor will be managed with 1:1 thread scheduler.
There are additional settings by environment variables:
`RUBY_MN_THREADS=1` enables M:N thread scheduler on the main ractor.
Note that non-main ractors use the M:N scheduler without this
configuration. With this configuration, single ractor applications
run threads on M:1 thread scheduler (green threads, user-level threads).
`RUBY_MAX_CPU=n` specifies maximum number of native threads for
M:N scheduler (default: 8).
This patch will be reverted soon if non-easy issues are found.
[Bug #19842]
The current documentation for `rb_postponed_job_register_one()` is
explaining the differences with itself, where it should be explaining
the differences with `rb_postponed_job_register()`.
Existing strscan releases rely on this C API. It means that the current
Ruby master doesn't work if your Gemfile.lock has strscan unless it's
locked to 3.0.7, which is not released yet.
To fix it, let's not remove the C API we've exposed to users.
rb_reg_onig_match performs preparation, error handling, and cleanup for
matching a regex against a string. This reduces repetitive code and
removes the need for StringScanner to access internal data of regex.
Closes [Feature #19729]
Previously 2 bits of the flags on each RVALUE are reserved to store the
number of GC cycles that each object has survived. This commit
introduces a new bit array on the heap page, called age_bits, to store
that information instead.
This patch still reserves one of the age bits in the flags (the old
FL_PROMOTED0 bit, now renamed FL_PROMOTED).
This is set to 0 for young objects and 1 for old objects, and is used as
a performance optimisation for the write barrier. Fetching the age_bits
from the heap page and doing the required math to calculate if the
object was old or not would slow down the write barrier. So we keep this
bit synced in the flags for fast access.
st_copy allocates a st_table, which is not needed for hashes since it is
allocated by VWA and embedded, so this causes a memory leak.
The following script demonstrates the issue:
```ruby
20.times do
100_000.times do
{a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5, f: 6, g: 7, h: 8, i: 9}
end
puts `ps -o rss= -p #{$$}`
end
```
* Make TAINT and UNTRUSTED flags zero
These flags do nothing already, and should break nothing.
* Remove TAINT and UNTRUSTED macros same as functions
These macros had been defined to use with `#ifdef`, but should not be
used anymore.
Since no type information is available for variadic arguments, 0 is
passed as `int` without promoting to pointer. On platforms where
`sizeof(int) < sizeof(void*)`, the terminator argument may be read
together with an adjoining word, and may not be found.
* Unify length field for embedded and heap strings
The length field is of the same type and position in RString for both
embedded and heap allocated strings, so we can unify it.
* Remove RSTRING_EMBED_LEN
* Add rb_io_path and rb_io_open_descriptor.
* Use rb_io_open_descriptor to create PTY objects
* Rename FMODE_PREP -> FMODE_EXTERNAL and expose it
FMODE_PREP I believe refers to the concept of a "pre-prepared" file, but
FMODE_EXTERNAL is clearer about what the file descriptor represents and
aligns with language in the IO::Buffer module.
* Ensure that rb_io_open_descriptor closes the FD if it fails
If FMODE_EXTERNAL is not set, then it's guaranteed that Ruby will be
responsible for closing your file, eventually, if you pass it to
rb_io_open_descriptor, even if it raises an exception.
* Rename IS_EXTERNAL_FD -> RUBY_IO_EXTERNAL_P
* Expose `rb_io_closed_p`.
* Add `rb_io_mode` to get IO mode.

* Documentation consistency.
* Improve consistency of `pread`/`pwrite` implementation when given length.
* Remove HAVE_PREAD / HAVE_PWRITE - it is no longer optional.
On Win32, currently, rb_nativethread_cond_t is an incomplete type
because it's a typedef for `struct rb_thread_cond_struct`. That means
you can't actually allocate a rb_nativethread_cond_t unless you also
include THREAD_IMPL_H (since its defined in thread_win32.h)
(alternatively, including vm_core.h also works).
Move the definition of rb_thread_cond_struct into thread_native.h to
alleviate this.
* Refactor Regexp#match cache implementation
Improved variable and function names
Fixed [Bug 19537] (Maybe fixed in https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/7694)
* Add a comment of the glossary for "match cache"
* Skip to reset match cache when no cache point on null check
Followup: ac123f167a
RB_WARN_CATEGORY_ALL_BITS is exposed in a public header, so it
makes sense for it to be updated to contain all valid bits.
Instead we introduce RB_WARN_CATEGORY_DEFAULT_BITS to list the
categories that are enabled by default.
