tg ad98b9fc4a compatibility: stick “set ±o arc4random” around for a bit longer,
until R40 is definitively out (so there MAY still be an R39d)

this commit can easily be reverted in its entirety later, when
Build.sh’s compatibility for “-combine” &c. is removed too

tg 4cbb5a9d46 to speed up mksh, get rid of arc4random(3) uses and use the LCG always;
depend on ASLR for seeding

tg 0c94277ccb To solve the incompatibility issues between mksh-current, old mksh versions
and vendor pdksh versions, re-introduce FPOSIX alongside FSH. The semantics
are now:
‣ set -o posix ⇒
  • disable brace expansion and FSH when triggered
  • use Debian Policy 10.4 compliant non-XSI “echo” builtin
  • do not keep file descriptors > 2 to ksh
‣ set -o sh ⇒
  • set automatically #ifdef MKSH_BINSHREDUCED
  • disable brace expansion and FPOSIX when triggered
  • use Debian Policy 10.4 compliant non-XSI “echo” builtin
  • do not keep file descriptors > 2 to ksh
  • trigger MKSH_MIDNIGHTBSD01ASH_COMPAT mode if compiled in
  • make “set -- $(getopt ab:c "$@")” construct work

Note that the set/getopt one used to behave POSIXly only with FSH or
FPOSIX (depending on the mksh version) set and Bourne-ish with it not
set, so this changes default mksh behaviour to POSIX!

tg 33b9f8b666 * rename "set -o posix" (FPOSIX) to "set -o sh" (FSH) because it's not
just a "somewhat more POSIX" but also a "/bin/sh legacy kludge" mode
* consistently capitalise POSIX and SUSv3/SUSv4 (same as AT&T ksh) and
  Bourne shell

tg a59d14b565 further optimise and simplify the handling of $RANDOM, reads and writes
to it are now either arc4random or rand/srand, but srand retains the old
state; set +o arc4random is no longer possible, but if it's there we use
arc4random(3), if not, we use rand(3) for $RANDOM reads; optimise special
variable handling too and fix a few consts and other minor things

tg 1dfb13b603 change undef/def MKSH_NOVI into 0/1 MKSH_S_NOVI flag (with more to come:
MKSH_S_EDIT for small (Emacs) editing mode, MKSH_S_FEAT for all the dis-
abled language features), which can be set to 0 despite MKSH_SMALL being
defined to re-enable the Vi command line editing mode (which I wouldn't,
but fits into the general mastermind scheme)

tg 588921333e more of this:
• shell flags are now handled in one single place (sh_flags.h)
• sync comments (between enum and array) and manpage with reality
• FMONITOR is now no longer needed for Hartz IV shells
