Fix ignoring locale categories
There have long been Configure options like
./Configure -Accflags=-DNO_LOCALE_TIME
to tell perl to not pay attention to the LC_TIME category. This feature
has never fully worked. This commit fixes it.
One problem is that the when the libc does know about LC_TIME, but perl
is supposed to ignore that, it didn't have in place the logic to ignore
it in many circumstances.
This commit creates a boolean array for each locale category known to
the platform's libc, indicating whether that category is to be ignored
or not by perl. If no category is to be ignored, the array and
ancillary code are not compiled, so perl works like it did before this
commit.
But if one or more categories are to be ignored, the code comes into
play. A problem is that such categories really do exist on the
platform, and so ignoring them just doesn't work properly. On a
platform with positional LC_ALL notation when not all categories have
the same locale, LC_ALL legally could look something like
C/de_DE/nl_NL/en_GB/zh_TW.UTF-8/he_IL
Perl has to be smart enough to know which of those are categories to be
ignore. Prior to this commit, it wasn't. In fact, all ignored
categories do exist and do have a locale. Those should all be C.
Therefore this commit doesn't actually ignore any locales; it instead
causes perl to refuse to change such ones away from C.
We don't currently have tests for these configurations. I have
personally tested a couple hundred different combinations over and over,
but that's way too much for CI.

loc_tools: Handle ignored positional categories
The previous commit changes locale.c to adequately handle categories on
a system that we have been told to ignore. This commit updates
loc_tools to better handle them.
