This is simpler and easier to explain, and should encourage better
typography. Do this in Electric Quote mode and when translating
quotes in docstrings. Inspired by a suggestion by Dmitry Gutov in:

Don't define, as it's not needed and it clashes with wchar.h.
This is a followup to the recent doc string change, and deals with
diagnostics and the like. This patch is more conservative than
the doc string change, in that the behavior of ‘format’ changes
only if its first arg contains curved quotes and the user prefers
straight or grave quotes. (Come to think of it, perhaps we should
be similarly conservative with doc strings too, but that can wait.)
The upside of this conservatism is that existing usage is almost
surely unaffected. The downside is that we'll eventually have to
change Emacs's format strings to use curved quotes in places where
the user might want curved quotes, but that's a simple and
mechanical translation that I'm willing to do later. (Bug#21222)

Fix several problems with the recently-added custom variable
help-quote-translation where the code would quote inconsistently
in help buffers. Add support for quoting 'like this', which
is common in other GNU programs in ASCII environments. Change
help-quote-translation to use more mnemonic values: values are now the
initial quoting char, e.g., (setq help-quote-translation ?`) gets the
traditional Emacs help-buffer quoting style `like this'. Change the
default behavior of substitute-command-keys to match what's done in
set-locale-environment, i.e., quote ‘like this’ if displayable,
'like this' otherwise.

Include <stdbool.h>.
(xstrdup): New function.

(SYMBOL): New constant in enum global_type.
(struct symbol): Turn 'value' member into a union, either v.value
for int or v.svalue for string. All uses changed.
(add_global): New arg svalue, which overrides value, so that globals
can have a string value.
(close_emacs_global): New arg num_symbols; all uses changed.
Output lispsym decl.
(write_globals): Output symbol globals too. Output more
ATTRIBUTE_CONST, now that Qnil etc. are C constants.
Output defsym_name table.
(scan_c_file): Move most of guts into ...
(scan_c_stream): ... new function. Scan for DEFSYMs and
record symbols found. Don't read past EOF if file doesn't
end in newline.

These names are now defined automatically by make-docfile.
* alloc.c (init_symbol): New function.
(Fmake_symbol): Use it.
(c_symbol_p): New function.
(valid_lisp_object_p, purecopy): Use it.

Use make_lisp_symbol instead of make_lisp_ptr.
(garbage_collect_1): Mark lispsym symbols.
(CHECK_ALLOCATED_AND_LIVE_SYMBOL): New macro.
(mark_object): Use it.
(sweep_symbols): Sweep lispsym symbols.
(symbol_uses_obj): New function.
(which_symbols): Use it. Work for lispsym symbols, too.
(init_alloc_once): Initialize Vpurify_flag here; no need to wait,
since Qt's address is already known now.
(syms_of_alloc): Add lispsym count to symbols_consed.

when testing whether storage is all bits zero.
* dispextern (struct image_type):
* font.c (font_property_table):
* frame.c (struct frame_parm_table, frame_parms):
* keyboard.c (scroll_bar_parts, struct event_head):
* xdisp.c (struct props):
Use XSYMBOL_INIT (Qfoo) and struct Lisp_Symbol * rather than &Qfoo and
Lisp_Object *, since Qfoo is no longer an object whose address can be
taken. All uses changed.
* eval.c (run_hook): New function. Most uses of Frun_hooks changed to
use it, so that they no longer need to take the address of a Lisp sym.
(syms_of_eval): Don't use DEFSYM on Vrun_hooks, as it's a variable.
* frame.c (syms_of_frame): Add defsyms for the frame_parms table.
* keyboard.c (syms_of_keyboard): Don't DEFSYM Qmenu_bar here.
DEFSYM Qdeactivate_mark before the corresponding var.
* keymap.c (syms_of_keymap): Use DEFSYM for Qmenu_bar and Qmode_line
instead of interning their symbols; this avoids duplicates.
(LISP_INITIALLY, TAG_PTR)
(DEFINE_LISP_SYMBOL_BEGIN, DEFINE_LISP_SYMBOL_END, XSYMBOL_INIT):
New macros.
(LISP_INITIALLY_ZERO): Use it.
(enum symbol_interned, enum symbol_redirect, struct Lisp_Symbol)
(EXFUN, DEFUN_ARGS_MANY, DEFUN_ARGS_UNEVALLED, DEFUN_ARGS_*):
Move decls up, to avoid forward uses. Include globals.h earlier, too.
(make_lisp_symbol): New function.
(XSETSYMBOL): Use it.
(DEFSYM): Now just a placeholder for make-docfile.
* lread.c (DEFINE_SYMBOLS): Define, for globals.h.
(intern_sym): New function, with body taken from old intern_driver.
(intern_driver): Use it. Last arg is now Lisp integer, not ptrdiff_t.
All uses changed.
(define_symbol): New function.
(init_obarray): Define the C symbols taken from lispsym.
Use plain DEFSYM for Qt and Qnil.
* syntax.c (init_syntax_once): No need to worry about
Qchar_table_extra_slots.
* doc/lispref/internals.texi (Stack-allocated Objects):
Adjust to match the revised, less error-prone macros.
* src/frame.h (AUTO_FRAME_ARG): Rename from FRAME_PARAMETER.
* src/lisp.h (AUTO_CONS): Rename from scoped_cons.
(AUTO_LIST1): Rename from scoped_list1.
(AUTO_LIST2): Rename from scoped_list2.
(AUTO_LIST3): Rename from scoped_list3.
(AUTO_LIST4): Rename from scoped_list4.
(AUTO_STRING): Rename from SCOPED_STRING.
* src/frame.h (AUTO_FRAME_ARG):
* src/lisp.h (AUTO_CONS, AUTO_LIST1, AUTO_LIST2, AUTO_LIST3)
(AUTO_LIST4, AUTO_STRING):
Prepend a new argument 'name'.
Declare a variable instead of yielding a value.
All uses changed.
* src/lisp.h (STACK_CONS, AUTO_CONS_EXPR): New internal macros.
The build_local_string macro was used in two ways: (1) string
literals for which scoped allocation suffices, and (2) file name
components, where it's not safe in general to assume bounded-size
ASCII data. Simplify by defining a new macro SCOPED_STRING that
allocates a block-scope string, and by using SCOPED_STRING for (1)
and build_string for (2). Furthermore, actually use stack
allocation only for objects known to have sufficient alignment.
This simpler implementation means Emacs can make
USE_STACK_LISP_OBJECTS the default unless GC_MARK_STACK !=
GC_MAKE_GCPROS_NOOPS.
* lisp.h (GCALIGNED): Align even if !USE_STACK_LISP_OBJECTS,
for fewer differences among implementations.
(struct Lisp_String): Now GCALIGNED.
(USE_STACK_LISP_OBJECTS): Default to true, since the
implementation no longer insists on a nonempty GCALIGNED.
But make it false if GC_MARK_STACK != GC_MAKE_GCPROS_NOOPS.
(SCOPED_CONS_INITIALIZER): Remove, since it's no longer needed
separately. Move definiens to scoped_cons. The old definition
was incorrect when GCALIGNED was defined to be empty.
(union Aligned_String): New type.
(USE_STACK_CONS, USE_STACK_STRING): New constants, so that the
implementation ports to compilers that don't align strictly enough.
Don't worry about the union sizes; it's not worth bothering about.
(scoped_cons, scoped_list1, scoped_list3, scoped_list4):
Rewrite using USE_STACK_CONS.
(scoped_cons): Assume the use of union Aligned_Cons.
(lisp_string_size, make_local_string, build_local_string): Remove.
Unless otherwise specified, all callers of build_local_string
changed to use SCOPED_STRING.
(SCOPED_STRING): New macro.
* data.c (wrong_choice):
* menu.c (single_menu_item):
* process.c (Fformat_network_address):
Hoist use of SCOPED_STRING out of a scope, so that its returned
object lives long enough.
* fileio.c (Fexpand_file_name): Use build_string, not SCOPED_STRING,
as the string might be long or might not be ASCII.
This follows up on the recent thread in emacs-devel on alloca; see:

(SAFE_ALLOCA_STRING): ... new macro with different API.
This fixes a portability problem, namely, alloca result
passed to another function. All uses changed.

not MAX_ALLOCA - 1.

(REGEX_FREE_STACK, FREE_VARIABLES, re_match_2_internal):
Use them.
* xdisp.c (message3): Use SAFE_ALLOCA_STRING rather than doing it

If the file name is neither null nor a pair, package it up as a

report_file_error. This fixes a bug where the memory allocator
invoked by list1 set errno so that the immediately following
report_file_error reported the wrong errno value.

followed by comma, rather than a single string. Put it into a
.tmp file in case there's an error while generating it.
