Word boundaries are based on whether a character is alphanumeric or
not. For the PG_UNICODE_FAST collation, alphanumeric includes
non-ASCII digits; whereas for the PG_C_UTF8 collation, it only
includes digits 0-9. Pass down the right information from the
pg_locale_t into initcap_wbnext to differentiate the behavior.

Make sure that function declarations use names that exactly match the
corresponding names from function definitions in a few places. These
inconsistencies were all introduced during Postgres 18 development.
This commit was written with help from clang-tidy, by mechanically
applying the same rules as similar clean-up commits (the earliest such
commit was commit 035ce1fe).
Useful for caseless matching. Similar to LOWER(), but avoids edge-case
problems with using LOWER() for caseless matching.
For collations that support it, CASEFOLD() handles characters with
more than two case variations or multi-character case variations. Some
characters may fold to uppercase. The results of case folding are also
more stable across Unicode versions than LOWER() or UPPER().

The PG_UNICODE_FAST locale uses code point sort order (fast,
memcmp-based) combined with Unicode character semantics. The character
semantics are based on Unicode full case mapping.
Full case mapping can map a single codepoint to multiple codepoints,
such as "ß" uppercasing to "SS". Additionally, it handles
context-sensitive mappings like the "final sigma", and it uses
titlecase mappings such as "Dž" when titlecasing (rather than plain
uppercase mappings).
Importantly, the uppercasing of "ß" as "SS" is specifically mentioned
by the SQL standard. In Postgres, UCS_BASIC uses plain ASCII semantics
for case mapping and pattern matching, so if we changed it to use the
PG_UNICODE_FAST locale, it would offer better compliance with the
standard. For now, though, do not change the behavior of UCS_BASIC.

Create API entry points pg_strlower(), etc., that work with any
provider and give the caller control over the destination
buffer. Then, move provider-specific logic into pg_locale_builtin.c,
pg_locale_icu.c, and pg_locale_libc.c as appropriate.
