encodation in certain cases (and no pessimizations found so far),
props lyngklip (BWIPP);
fix extended char latching when exactly 3 extended chars at end;
count code set C (not digits) in loop deciding when to
shift/latch to extended for better estimate
AZTEC: return warning if ECC < 5% (due to bit-stuffing when version
given); return error if > 22 layers (Zint 26) for Reader
Initialisation symbol requested for better error message
AZTEC/HANXIN/QRCODE: consolidate different ECC data size tables
into one indexed by ECC
DBAR_EXP: check for reduced length <= 77 up front for better error
message
HANXIN: use `malloc()` rather than `z_alloca()` for large binary
array
QRCODE: `ecc_level` now 0-based (not 1-based)
MICROQR: consolidate different version end routines into one
`microqr_end()` and use new `microqr_data` table to simplify code
MICROPDF417: use table for max codewords per column
library: centralize all error messages using new `errtxt()`,
`errtxtf()`, `errtxt_adj()` funcs that protect `symbol->errtxt`
from overflow, & try to make error messages more consistent
thru-out, adding more feedback info to many, & use positional
args "%n$" in prep for l10n (maybe);
`is_sane/is_sane_lookup()` -> `not_sane/not_sane_lookup()`,
returning 1-based position (zero on failure) instead of bool;
`long` ints -> plain `int` (except those dealing with `ftell()`,
`fread()` etc) as depend on int being 32-bits already
GUI: in "grpDATF.ui" use "PlainText" rather than "RichText" for
tracker ratio examples as height of text messing up sometimes
manual: clarify Codablock-F length maximum & add examples
docs: README: pandoc 3.5, Ubuntu 24.04
CMake: use "-Wpedantic" for Clang only as GNU complains about
`errtxtf()` positional args "%n$"
`iso3166list` linter and adjusting all others to allow for
multiple optional linters (by checking `data_len` vs `offset`)
library: change invalid `input_mode` reset to return warning;
split func table into 2 - func declarations without prototype
will be error in C23;
make invalid symbology check a separate function using a table
and call near beginning of `ZBarcode_Encode_Segs()`;
in `ZBarcode_BarcodeName()` save some bytes by simplifying
name table and removing "BARCODE_" prefix from entries
output: fix pack logic to use pragma by default (actually more
portable than `__attribute__`)
common.h: remove C99 detection which was artifice of specifying
"-std=", and rejig layout to be more logical
BWIPP: update to latest version
general: change `ZINT_VERSION_BUILD` tests to `#if`s
general: further fiddling with some tables to save a few bytes
CLI: change function arg `optarg` -> `arg` so doesn't shadow
global
general: library now compilable with Comp Cert C (though as it
doesn't support `alloca()` will have multiple memory leaks)

AZTEC/CODE16K/CODEONE/DATAMATRIX/DBAR_EXP/GRIDMATRIX/HANXIN

CODE11/CODE39: move start/stop chars into one entry in tables to
save a few bytes; some reformatting, comments
CODEONE: add `c1_` prefixes
common: more precise compiler/version checks
composite: add `cc_` prefixes; UINT -> unsigned short; use
`sizeof()` instead of `strlen()` for `in_linear_comp` static;
some reformatting, comments
EMF: use table instead of string for `ultra_chars[]`
GIF: remove unnecessary cast
library: use `sizeof()` instead of `strlen()` for static;
add `consts` to `escape_char_process()` & use unsigned for `ch`
DBAR: use `dbar_`, `dbar_ltd_`, `dbar_exp_` prefixes

for linear shifting
CLI: use own (Wine) version of `CommandLineToArgvW()` to avoid
loading "shell32.dll"
Move "font.h" -> "raster_font.h"
EPS/SVG: use new `out_putsf()` func to output floats, avoiding
trailing zeroes & locale dependency
EPS: simplify "TR" formula
SVG: change font from "Helvetica, sans serif" to "OCR-B, monospace";
use single "<path>" instead of multiple "<rect>"s to draw boxes
(reduces file size)
Add `EMBED_VECTOR_FONT` to `output_options` (CLI `--embedfont`) to
enable embedding of font in vector output - currently only for
SVG output of EAN/UPC
GUI: use "OCR-B" font for EAN/UPC and "Arimo" for all others (was
"Helvetica" for both); paint background of screen preview light
grey so as contrasts with whitespace and quiet zones
EMF: prefix funcs with `emf_`; simplify string `halign` handling
large: rename `large_int` -> `large_uint`
CODE128/common: move `c128_hrt_cpy_iso8859_1()` to

(symbol->debug)
QRCODE: better assert(), removing a NOLINT (2 left)
CLI: add some more barcode synonyms for DBAR

warning)

simplify dm_add_tail()
GUI: check suffixes on save so don't go into error state;
use native path for Save As clipboard message
CODE128: use gs1_check_digit() for NVE18 and EAN14
other than for digits (worse for TEX 7-11 embedded in extended) and for
returning X12/EDI at EOD - will cause changes in encodation;
allow for GS1 GS in B256 (should never happen);
some re-jigging of dm200encode and fiddling with dm_isXXX;
remove some DM_DEBUG from dm_placementbit

(though probably never reached); use "[tp++]" throughout
Add const to static tables missing it and also to some variables
Change "debug" -> "debug_print" throughout
- use fixed-length string tables (mostly) instead of (char *) pointer ones
(saves ~40K)
- re-use C128Table for CODABLOCKF and CODE16K
(required removal of Stop character and extra CODE16K-only entry)

instead of concatenating (strcat()) (mostly)
- replace last remaining bin_append()s with bin_append_posn();
bin_append() removed
- add length arg to toupper() and expand() (avoids strlen())
- change is_sane() to use table-based flags (avoids an iteration)
- rename lookup() to is_sane_lookup() and change to check and return posns
and use in pointer to destination loops (avoids strcat()s)
- remove special case PHARMA in expand() (dealt with in pharma())
- make #define SILVER/CALCIUM/TECHNETIUM/KRSET etc static strings
- replace strchr() -> posn()
- CODE128: populate destination once in checksum loop; re-use and export
some more routines (c128_set_a/b/c(), c128_put_in_set()) for sharing;
prefix defines (SHIFTA -> C128_SHIFTA etc) and existing exported routines
- use factor XOR toggle trick in checksum calcs (avoids branch)
- raster.c: fill out single 1-pixel row and copy using new draw_bar_line(),
copy_bar_line() routines; similarly in buffer_plot compare previous line &
copy if same (same technique as used to improve non-half-integer scaling,
significant performance increase, (c) codemonkey82);
also done for PNG (BMP/GIF/PCX/TIFF not done)
- raster/vector/output.c: shorten "output_" prefix -> "out_";
sync vector to other raster changes to try to keep source files similar
