Added `WITH_REAL` versions to `RB_RANDOM_INTERFACE` macros. Also
these macros including "without real" versions no longer contain
the terminator (semicolon and comma).
* random.c: separate abstract rb_random_t and rb_random_mt_t for
Mersenne Twister implementation.
* include/ruby/random.h: the interface for extensions of Random
class.
* DLL imported symbol reference is not constant on Windows.
* check if properly initialized.
This commit introduces Ractor mechanism to run Ruby program in
parallel. See doc/ractor.md for more details about Ractor.
See ticket [Feature #17100] to see the implementation details
and discussions.
[Feature #17100]
This commit does not complete the implementation. You can find
many bugs on using Ractor. Also the specification will be changed
so that this feature is experimental. You will see a warning when
you make the first Ractor with `Ractor.new`.
I hope this feature can help programmers from thread-safety issues.

3.0 is a good timing for that "future".
Because we check HAVE_STMT_AND_DECL_IN_EXPR in configure, it is peoven
to work in C. But C++ situation can be different. Oracle Developer
Studio is another example of such things.
Oracle Developer Studio's C++ preprocessor started to understand
__has_cpp_attribute since version 12.5, and is broken. After looking
around for a while I found Boost and ICU also had this issue before.
Let me add workaround for it.
Former ROBJECT_IV_INDEX_TBL macro included RCLASS_IV_INDEX_TBL, which is
not disclosed to extension libraies. The macro was kind of broken. Why
not just deprecate it, and convert the internal use into an inline
function.
RARRAY_AREF has been a macro for reasons. We might not be able to
change that for public APIs, but why not relax the situation internally
to make it an inline function.
- When NDEBUG is defined that shall be honoured.
- When RUBY_DEBUG is defined that shall be honoured.
- When both are defined and they conflict, warnings shall be rendered.
- When nothing is specified, nothing shall happen.
If __builtin_assume() is enables and RUBY_DEBUG=0, RUBY_ASSERT(expr)
will be compiled to __builtin_assume(expr) and compiler can assume
expr is true and apply aggressive optimizations. However we observed
doubtful behavior because of compiler optimizations, we introduce
new macro RUBY_ASSERT_NOASSUME to disable __builtin_assume().
With this macro, we can try without __builtin_assume().
Assertions in header files slows down an interpreter, so they should be
turned off by default (simple `make`). To enable them, define a macro
`RUBY_DEBUG=1` (e.g. `make cppflags=-DRUBY_DEBUG` or use `#define` at
the very beggining of the file. Note that even if `NDEBUG=1` is defined,
`RUBY_DEBUG=1` enables all assertions.
[Feature #16837]
related: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/3120
`assert()` lines in MRI *.c is not disabled even if `RUBY_DEBUG=0` and
it can be disabled with `NDEBUG=1`. So please consider to use
`RUBY_ASSERT()` if you want to disable them when `RUBY_DEBUG=0`.
We observed combination of multiple __builtin_assume() can cause
strange compile results on clang-6 (-DNDEBUG exposed this issue).
To avoid this problem, __builtin_assume() is from clang-7.
