`BARCODE_EAN_5ADDON`, `BARCODE_EAN13`, `BARCODE_EAN8_CC` and
`BARCODE_EAN13_CC` as replacements for `BARCODE_EANX`,
`BARCODE_EANX_CHK` and `BARCODE_EANX_CC` and use in CLI/GUI
(`BARCODE_EANX` etc. marked as legacy)
- For EAN/UPC accept space as alternative add-on separator to '+',
and accept GTIN-13 format with & without 2-digit or 5-digit
add-on (no separator)
- Buffer length of member `errtxt` in `zint_symbol` extended 100
-> 160 (will be sufficient for eventual translation and
gs1-syntax-dictionary errors hopefully)
- UPC-E: warn if first digit of 7 (or 8 if check digit given) not
'0' or '1'
- manual: update for new EAN symbologies and mention EANX now
legacy but still supported
and place any add-on data directly after (no separator)
EAN-8 + add-on: warn as non-compliant (see ZXing-C++ issue #883,
https://github.com/zxing-cpp/zxing-cpp/issues/883)
test suite: BWIPP: use new EAN-8 + add-on option "permitaddon";

followed by digit (ignore 2nd byte of FNC4 when categorizing
Code C characters)
- New `ZBarcode_Cap()` flag `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE`, differentiated
from `ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`, and new Qt Backend method
`isBindable()`
- CLI: fix `separator` check to use new `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE` instead
of `ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`
- ZBarcode_Cap: add missing symbologies to `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE` (was
`ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`)

not stacked (set `symbol->rows` to 0)
- test suite: move `test_perf` routines into single test
"test_perf";
new "test_random" (based on "test_bwipp") to test various

("Feedback options"), and add new access methods
`encodedOption1()` etc. to Qt Backend, and use in GUI to provide
better feedback on "Automatic" selections
- AZTEC: give more precise warnings in low ECC situations, and
indicate via `option_1` by setting to -1 (min 3 words), 0
(<5% + 3 words) (`ecc_ratio`)
- set_height: fix non-compliance false positives by using epsilon
in checks (prompted by CODABLOCKF non-compliant warning for
zint-generated compliant height - floating point `rows` mult !=
`zero_count` div; one test regression for CODE93);
better warning messages on non-compliant heights (min/max)

`count_char_occurrences()` -> `chr_cnt()`;
prefix defines with `DX_` and funcs with `dx_`;
`ZINT_DEBUG_PRINT` -> `symbol->debug & ZINT_DEBUG_PRINT`;
bools to ints; use `posn()` to check for slash (returns length);
restrict line lengths to 118; suppress some clang-tidy warnings;
normalize some error messages;
check for single "A" if any (`sscanf()`);
use compliant height default; some whitespace formatting;
Tcl: add DXFILMEDGE support
docs: document DXFILMEDGE; update to latest pandoc
test suite: ZXingCPP: DXFILMEDGE support
around 20% slower than current but much better;
numerous other fiddlings
reedsol: reverse result in `rs_*encode*()` routines & adjust
clients appropriately (may replace later with something faster)
test suite: cater for MAXICODE SCM better; add assert & dataset
totals
BWIPP: update to latest
gen_gs1_lint.php: restrict line length to 118 for func calls
BWIPP minimal encoding by Bue Jensen (BWIPP PR #278);
new extra escape `\^@` to turn off manual switching
zint.h: increase `symbol->text` size 200 -> 256 (means that for
the moment can no longer generate ZINT_WARN_HRT_TRUNCATED)
GS1_128/GS1_128_CC: warn if READER_INIT option used
CODE16K: move `c16k_set_a/b/c()` routines from "code128.c" and
rename `c16k_` (also `C128_` defines to `C16K_`)
common: make `itoc()` simple macro which adds '0' (>= 10 now ':',
';' etc) and adjust `expand()` accordingly for slight speed-up
general: EXTRA_ESCAPE_MODE now implies ESCAPE_MODE
tests: update BWIPP to latest and enable CODE128AB ("suppressc");
new test args '-n' (exclude func) and '-m' (match func)
encodation;
use code set E for padding as well, saves codeword, props Bue
Jensen (BWIPP PR #279);
add padding after all segments and limit loops to length to make
NS compression work better;
all the above temporary fixes until Bue Jensen's merge request
with the BWIPP PR #279 algorithm
GUI: expand linux "xcb" platform hack for >= Qt 5.1
ISO/IEC 15420:2009 4.3.5 (and BWIPP) and adjust righthand outside
digit to be 4X/2X instead of 5X/3X (ISO/IEC 15420:2009
Annex A.2) away from main symbol so as not to touch add-on
TODO: revisit when standard clarified
encodation in certain cases (and no pessimizations found so far),

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

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$" in prep for l10n (maybe);
`is_sane/is_sane_lookup()` -> `not_sane/not_sane_lookup()`,
returning 1-based position (zero on failure) instead of bool;
`long` ints -> plain `int` (except those dealing with `ftell()`,
`fread()` etc) as depend on int being 32-bits already
GUI: in "grpDATF.ui" use "PlainText" rather than "RichText" for
tracker ratio examples as height of text messing up sometimes
manual: clarify Codablock-F length maximum & add examples
docs: README: pandoc 3.5, Ubuntu 24.04
CMake: use "-Wpedantic" for Clang only as GNU complains about
`errtxtf()` positional args "%n$"

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
