filters: rewrite wrap in c
This utility introduced in commit c9524d265793 ("filters: add wrap
utility written in go") allows to reflow text to view emails that have
very long lines without breaking quotes, lists and indentation.
For such a simple task, go produces a binary that is 2.0M bytes on disk.
After stripping debugging symbols, it can be reduced to 1.2M bytes. All
of this for 267 lines of source code. This is a bit ridiculous, provided
people may load this binary into memory multiple times per minute. This
tool is a small side-project that seems not suitable for golang.
Rewrite it in C. It now only depends on a POSIX libc to run. It is safe
to assume that there is one available on all *NIX systems in the world
of 2023. The resulting binary is now 27K bytes (15K after stripping).
To build it, a C compiler and libc headers are required. These should
most likely be available since they are dependencies of the go compiler
toolchain.
I have tested compilation (with clang-analyzer and gcc -fanalyzer) and
basic operation on FreeBSD, Fedora (glibc) and Alpine (musl libc). More
tests would probably be required on MacOSX and older Linux distros.
I also added test vectors to give some confidence that this works as
expected.
Update CI with aggressive gcc hardening flags and to run these tests
with valgrind --leak-check=full.
Command line options are unchanged:
usage: wrap [-h] [-w INT] [-r] [-l INT] [-f FILE]
Wrap text without messing up email quotes.
options:
-h show this help message
-w INT preferred wrap margin (default 80)
-r reflow all paragraphs even if no trailing space
-l INT minimum percentage of letters in a line to be considered
a paragaph
-f FILE read from filename (default stdin)
