[1/3] C: Implement C2X N2653 char8_t and UTF-8 string literal changes
Commit Message
This patch implements the core language and compiler dependent library
changes adopted for C2X via WG14 N2653. The changes include:
- Change of type for UTF-8 string literals from array of const char to
array of const char8_t (unsigned char).
- A new atomic_char8_t typedef.
- A new ATOMIC_CHAR8_T_LOCK_FREE macro defined in terms of the existing
__GCC_ATOMIC_CHAR8_T_LOCK_FREE predefined macro.
gcc/ChangeLog:
* ginclude/stdatomic.h (atomic_char8_t,
ATOMIC_CHAR8_T_LOCK_FREE): New typedef and macro.
gcc/c/ChangeLog:
* c-parser.c (c_parser_string_literal): Use char8_t as the type
of CPP_UTF8STRING when char8_t support is enabled.
* c-typeck.c (digest_init): Allow initialization of an array
of character type by a string literal with type array of
char8_t.
gcc/c-family/ChangeLog:
* c-lex.c (lex_string, lex_charconst): Use char8_t as the type
of CPP_UTF8CHAR and CPP_UTF8STRING when char8_t support is
enabled.
* c-opts.c (c_common_post_options): Set flag_char8_t if
targeting C2x.

GCC headers don't test glibc feature test macros such as _GNU_SOURCE and
_ISOC2X_SOURCE; they base things only on the standard version (whether
directly, or indirectly as via __CHAR8_TYPE__) and standard-defined
feature test macros.
(There's one exception in glimits.h - testing __USE_GNU, the macro defined
internally by glibc's headers - but I don't think that's something we want
to emulate in new code.)

Ok, thank you, that makes sense. I'll follow up with a revised patch
that removes the additional conditions.
