CRuby 3.4 puts spaces around `=>` since for example `{:a!=>2}` can be
confusing where to separate tokens. mruby should follow the behavior.
Many tests in `test/t` directory assumed no spaces around `=>`, so we
needed to fix them too.
When multiple identical proc objects are placed on the call stack, it is not possible to distinguish where to `return`.
Therefore, use env object comparisons to do this.

To avoid confusion with pools in irep, we renamed region-based memory
manager from pool to mempool.
- rename pool.c to mempool.c
- separate mempool.h
- rename all mrb_pool to mrb_mempool
So if someone is using pool.c functions (I suppose no one does though),
they need to rename all `mrb_pool` to `mrb_mempool` and include
`mruby/mempool.h` header at the top.
mrb_pool_value is a structure that represents a value in the irep
literal pool and is unrelated to mrb_pool, which performs region-based
memory management. It has been renamed mrb_irep_pool to avoid confusion.
C to Ruby calls using `mrb_exec_irep()` were not forwarding arguments.
There was also a problem in setting the target class and method ID, which is also fixed.
This issue was discovered during the work to fix#6389.
However, on C, there is no easy way to pass keyword arguments.
Therefore, when called `Kernel#instance_exec` on C, keyword arguments are converted to positional arguments.
This is a limitation of current mruby.

Calling `mrb_gc_unregistor()` from `mrb_data_type::dfree` caused a use-after-free deep inside `mrb_close()`.
The impetus to investigate was <https://github.com/mruby/mruby/pull/6342#pullrequestreview-2292747530>.
Currently, when `mrb_close()` is called, all objects are destroyed first.
The process is done heap page by heap page, and when all objects belonging to a heap page are destroyed, the heap page is released.
If the next heap page contains `RData` objects, the `mrb_gc_unregistor()` function may be called from the `mrb_data_type::dfree` function.
At this time, the `mrb_gc_unregistor()` function gets an array object from a Ruby global variable.
If the array object belongs to a freed heap page, use-after-free is established by referencing this array object.
About the fixes.
First of all, there is the fact that the `mrb_gv_get()` function returns `nil` if `mrb->globals` is `NULL`.
Therefore, before destroying all objects, free `mrb->globals` and set `mrb->globals` to `NULL` at the same time.
Now the `mrb_gv_get()` function will return `nil` to the calling `mrb_gc_unregistor()` function and `mrb_gc_unregistor()` will do nothing more.

Once the class is set, objects can be referenced and manipulated from the Ruby side by using `ObjectSpace.each_object`.
Also, currently `mrb_gc_unregister()` assumes that the element is a non-immediate object.
However, `mrb_gc_unregister()` does not read or write to the address, so there was no problem.
As #6359 pointed out, calling const_missing hook from E_XXX_ERROR (that
calls mrb_exc_get_id()) can be an attack vector. Since E_XXX_ERROR is
supposed to be a defined error class, we think that the situation where
it is undefined and the const_missing hook is called should be detected
as an error; fix#6359
The callinfo refers blk since #5786 but not marked at the time. Later we
added reclamation check by #5791 but its repeated heap scans decrease
the performance drastically in some cases. So the original @dearblue's
solution should be taken
Probably we need to always keep the original block at the bottom of
arguments. And the explicit block argument should be a normal local
variable. We will investigate it later.
The new version gives more accurate values for decimal number
representation that are not divisible in binary representations, for
example `0.3`.
The function uses `long double` for precision. Please report if `long
double` causes problems on any platform (especially microcontrollers).
Ref #6182
The `mrb_get_argv()` function and the `*` specifier of `mrb_get_args()` get the address of the argument.
At this time, if it is passed in the form of a splat argument, it will be an address to an element of an array object.
After getting the pointer to the array object, the caller may call `mrb_vm_exec()` directly or indirectly.
At this time, a splat argument with the class set can be retrieved as an array object by searching with `ObjectSpace.each_object`.
If changes are made as array objects, addresses on the heap as arrays may become invalid, or objects in the array may be recycled by the GC.
When the caller references the changed address in a subsequent operation, use-after-free is established.
This patch assigns `NULL` as the class of the array object so that it cannot be detected by `ObjectSpace.each_object` from the Ruby side.
`mrb_equal()` may call `obj.==` method internally.
Therefore, using an unupdated pointer and length after `mrb_equal()` could result in a read/write to an invalid address.
Fresh properties must always be obtained regardless of the result of `mrb_equal()`.
Also, `ary_modify()` must be called each time before writing.
ref. #6339
The C local variable is not protected from GC, so we use the function
mrb_gc_protect() to keep the value. We also keep the arena position by
mrb_gc_arena_save(), then restoring the position for every new return
value, to minimize arena size.
Small cosmetic changes (pre-increment to post-increment) are also made
in this commit.
When calling `mrb_equal()` or `mrb_funcall()` family functions, the GC arena should be restored if the loop is repeated by a non-immediate return value.
In my opinion, restoring the GC arena is unnecessary when a non-immediate (true) value causes the function to return (e.g. the `mrb_ary_index_m()` function).
The patch does not take into account the case of recursive calls and may be incomplete.
The `mrb_ary_cmp()` function calls `mrb_cmp()` for comparison, but `mrb_cmp()` may call the `obj.<=>` method internally.
If a user-defined `<=>` method is called and the array object under comparison is expanded or reduced, a reference to an invalid address may subsequently be made.
We assumed there's no need for gc_arena_keep() when MRB_GC_FIXED_ARENA
is set. But it turned out that gc_protect() still can cause use-after-free
with fixed arena.
