Jonathan Wakely c2fb0a1a2e libstdc++: Make self-move well-defined for containers [PR 85828]
The C++ LWG recently confirmed that self-move assignment should not have
undefined behaviour for standard containers (see the proposed resolution
of LWG 2839). The result should be a valid but unspecified value, just
like other times when a container is moved from.

Our std::list, std::__cxx11::basic_string and unordered containers all
have bugs which result in undefined behaviour.

For std::list the problem is that we clear the previous contents using
_M_clear() instead of clear(). This means the _M_next, _M_prev and
_M_size members are not zeroed, and so after we "update" them (with
their existing values), we are left with dangling pointers and a
non-zero size, but no elements.

For the unordered containers the problem is similar. _Hashtable first
deallocates the existing contents, then takes ownership of the pointers
from the RHS object (which has just had its contents deallocated so the
pointers are dangling).

For std::basic_string it's a little more subtle. When the string is
local (i.e. fits in the SSO buffer) we use char_traits::copy to copy the
contents from this->data() to __rhs.data(). When &__rhs == this that
copy violates the precondition that the ranges don't overlap. We only
need to check for self-move for this case where it's local, because the
only other case that can be true for self-move is that it's non-local
but the allocators compare equal. In that case the data pointer is
neither deallocated nor leaked, so the result is well-defined.

This patch also makes a small optimization for std::deque move
assignment, to use the efficient move when is_always_equal is false, but
the allocators compare equal at runtime.

Finally, we need to remove all the Debug Mode checks which abort the
program when a self-move is detected, because it's not undefined to do
that.

Before PR 85828 can be closed we should also look into fixing
std::shuffle so it doesn't do any redundant self-swaps.

some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the
individual source files for details.

The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information
as HTML and plain text.  The source of this information is
gcc/doc/install.texi.  The installation information includes details
of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.

See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it
includes) for usage and porting information.  An online readable
version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*.

Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range
notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range,
inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed
individually.
