Weak points:
- alignof

Todo:
- make js work with C++ and mozjs-17
- then mozjs-24

- then mozjs-60
- decrease number of warnings
INIT_OPTION used to initialize union option_value at compile time by
casting the default value to LIST_OF(struct option) *, which is the
type of the first member. On sparc64 and other big-endian systems
where sizeof(int) < sizeof(struct list_head *), this tended to leave
option->value.number as zero, thus messing up OPT_INT and OPT_BOOL
at least. OPT_LONG however tended to work right.
This would be easy to fix with C99 designated initializers,
but doc/hacking.txt says ELinks must be kept C89 compatible.
Another solution would be to make register_options() read the
value from option->value.tree (the first member), cast it back
to the right type, and write it to the appropriate member;
but that would still require somewhat dubious conversions
between integers, data pointers, and function pointers.
So here's a rather more invasive solution. Add struct option_init,
which is somewhat similar to struct option but has non-overlapping
members for different types of values, to ensure nothing is lost
in compile-time conversions. Move unsigned char *path from struct
option_info to struct option_init, and replace struct option_info
with a union that contains struct option_init and struct option.
Now, this union can be initialized with no portability problems,
and register_options() then moves the values from struct option_init
to their final places in struct option.
In my x86 ELinks build with plenty of options configured in, this
change bloated the text section by 340 bytes but compressed the data
section by 2784 bytes, presumably because union option_info is a
pointer smaller than struct option_info was.

Conflicts:
src/protocol/fsp/fsp.c: All options had been removed in 0.13.GIT.
src/protocol/smb/smb2.c: Ditto.
Documentation strings of most options used to contain a "\n" at the
end of each source line. When the option manager displayed these
strings, it treated each "\n" as a hard newline. On 80x24 terminals
however, the option description window has only 60 columes available
for the text (with the default setup.h), and the hard newlines were
further apart, so the option manager wrapped the text a second time,
resulting in rather ugly output where long lones are interleaved with
short ones. This could also cause the text to take up too much
vertical space and not fit in the window.
Replace most of those hard newlines with spaces so that the option
manager (or perhaps BFU) will take care of the wrapping. At the same
time, rewrap the strings in source code so that the source lines are
at most 79 columns wide.
In some options though, there is a list of possible values and their
meanings. In those lists, if the description of one value does not
fit in one line, then continuation lines should be indented. The
option manager and BFU are not currently able to do that. So, keep
the hard newlines in those lists, but rewrap them to 60 columns so
that they are less likely to require further wrapping at runtime.
Replace almost all uses of enum connection_state with struct
connection_status. This removes the assumption that errno values used
by the system are between 0 and 100000. The GNU Hurd uses values like
ENOENT = 0x40000002 and EMIG_SERVER_DIED = -308.
This commit is derived from my attachments 450 and 467 to bug 1013.
I am reverting all /dev/fd recognition because of bug 917.
This reverts commit c283f8cfd9,
except src/protocol/file/file.c still needs #include "osdep/osdep.h"
for STRING_DIR_SEP.
I am reverting all copiousoutput support because of bug 917.
This reverts commit 4dc4ea47f2.
Conflicts:
src/network/connection.h: After the original commit, the declaration
of copiousoutput_data had been changed to use the LIST_OF macro.
Also, connection.cgi had been added next to the connection.popen
member added by the original commit.
src/session/download.c: After the original commit, the definition of
copiousoutput_data had been changed to use the INIT_LIST_OF macro.
Give them a corresponding Content-Type header. This must go in
cached->head because cached->content_type is supposed to be just
type/subtype. It will also be deduced from cached->head, so don't set
it separately.
string_concat reads the args with va_arg(ap, const unsigned char *),
and the NULL macro may have the wrong type (e.g. int).
Many places pass string literals of type char * to string_concat.
This is in principle also a violation, but I'm ignoring it for now
because if it becomes a problem with some C implementation, then so
will the use of unsigned char * with printf "%s", which is so
widespread in ELinks that I'm not going to try fixing it now.
straconcat reads the args with va_arg(ap, const unsigned char *),

In protocol/common.c length of string is known, so pass it
instead of -1 to encode_uri_string.
Introduced encode_win32_uri_string, because there were problems
with : and \ in base href.
