    [regexp] Fix and unify non-unicode case-folding algorithms · 3fab9d05
    Iain Ireland authored
    Non-unicode, case-insensitive regexps (e.g. /foo/i, not foo/iu) use a
    case-folding algorithm that doesn't quite match the Unicode
    definition. There are two places in irregexp that need to do
    case-folding. Prior to this patch, neither of them quite matched the
    spec (https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-runtime-semantics-canonicalize-ch).
    
    This patch implements the "Canonicalize" algorithm in
    src/regexp/special-case.h, and uses it in the relevant places. It
    replaces special-case logic around upper-casing / ASCII characters
    with the following approach:
    
    1. For most characters, calling UnicodeSet::closeOver on a set
       containing that character will produce the correct set of
       case-insensitive matches.
    
    2. For a small handful of characters (like the sharp S that prompted
       this change), UnicodeSet::closeOver will include some characters
       that should be omitted. For example, although closeOver('ß') =
       "ßẞ", uppercase('ß') is "SS", so step 3.e means that 'ß'
       canonicalizes to itself, and should not match 'ẞ'. In these cases,
       we can skip the closeOver entirely, because it will never add an
       equivalent character. These characters are in the IgnoreSet.
    
    3. For an even smaller handful of characters, UnicodeSet::closeOver
       will produce some characters that should be omitted, but also some
       characters that should be included. For example, closeOver('k') =
       "kKK" (lowercase k, uppercase K, U+212A KELVIN SIGN), but KELVIN
       SIGN should not match either of the other two (step 3.g). To handle
       this, we put such characters in the SpecialAddSet. In these cases,
       we closeOver the original character, but filter out the results
       that do not have the same canonical value.
    
    The computation of IgnoreSet and SpecialAddSet happens at build time,
    using the pre-existing gen-regexp-special-case.cc step.
