and take ahead parsing collating symbols, equivalence classes and
character classes already (heck my first draft of this already did
better than GNU bash, ksh93 I still don’t grok its code at all)
• make fast character classes even faster by removing the C_SUBOP2 hack
in favour of a separate seldom-used ksh_issubop2 macro (which also
makes ctype() side-effect-safe) which is a slower class (no change there)
• optimise cases of ksh_isalphx followed by a ksh_isalnux loop
(used parsing variable names)
• remove a misleading comment in initctypes() about \0 from pdksh
• rename C_ALPHA to C_ALPHX to make it more clear the underscore is included
• sprinkle a few ord() in there
• add new ksh_isalpha() which tests for [A-Za-z] (slow character class)
• there is no '_:\' drive on OS/2 (which inspired the whole changeset)

• if HAVE_STRING_POOLING is set to 2 and not GCC < 4 is used
• if HAVE_STRING_POOLING is not set to 0 and LLVM or GCC >= 4 is used

• if $PWD = ${HOME}foo, no longer show as ~foo in PS1
• simplify ~, ~+, and ~- exactly as $PWD is upon shell entry
(fixes HOME=/home/./foo but PWD=/home/foo)
prodded by izabera and carstenh; resolution is:
• you can’t trim a vector in mksh, still (consider ${@:-1})
• future POSIX will require non-empty “word” for most “op”s
• dissolve in order of standard → extension
• dissolve to prefer “op” over “prefix” where still necessary, mostly
in commitid 1004D8283F068C41C3C was bogus; it fixed Jb_boin’s issue
but izabers’s 「var=foo; echo "${var/*/x}"」 was broken; in fact we
only want to not do the looping for // if the pattern matches much.
Also, fix a spelling mistake in the manpage and change some wording
to also work with associative arrays (in the future; no change).
