New internal interface for fast text conversion in mbstring

When converting text to/from wchars, mbstring makes one function call
for each and every byte or wchar to be converted. Typically, each of
these conversion functions contains a state machine, and its state has
to be restored and then saved for every single one of these calls.
It doesn't take much to see that this is grossly inefficient.

Instead of converting one byte or wchar on each call, the new
conversion functions will either fill up or drain a whole buffer of
wchars on each call. In benchmarks, this is about 3-10× faster.

Adding the new, faster conversion functions for all supported legacy
text encodings still needs some work. Also, all the code which uses
the old-style conversion functions needs to be converted to use the
new ones. After that, the old code can be dropped. (The mailparse
extension will also have to be fixed up so it will still compile.)

Migrate more SKIPIF -> EXTENSIONS (#7139)

This is a mix of more automated and manual migration. It should remove all applicable extension_loaded() checks outside of skipif.inc files.

Sync leading and final newlines in *.phpt sections

This patch adds missing newlines, trims multiple redundant final
newlines into a single one, and trims redundant leading newlines in all
*.phpt sections.

According to POSIX, a line is a sequence of zero or more non-' <newline>'
characters plus a terminating '<newline>' character. [1] Files should
normally have at least one final newline character.

C89 [2] and later standards [3] mention a final newline:
"A source file that is not empty shall end in a new-line character,
which shall not be immediately preceded by a backslash character."

Although it is not mandatory for all files to have a final newline
fixed, a more consistent and homogeneous approach brings less of commit
differences issues and a better development experience in certain text
editors and IDEs.
