Autocompletion failed for nicknames using non Latin scripts. We used
`g_str_to_ascii`, which replaces characters it cannot transliterate with
'?', leading search failures and false matches between different
scripts.
Now we do:
Use `g_utf8_casefold` for case-insensitive UTF-8 comparison. This
ensures that like 'Σ' correctly match 'σ' across all Unicode scripts,
providing correct results for non English nicknames.
If we don't fine anything typing a base ASCII character matches an
accented one (typing `e` matches `è`). This pass uses `g_str_to_ascii`
followed by `g_ascii_strdown` for comparison. It is now restricted to
run if the search string itself is valid ASCII, preventing the
"everything matches '?'" bug in non Latin scripts.
Autocomplete items are sorted using `strcmp`. `g_utf8_collate` provides
linguistical ordering for a specific language. But its behavior is
locale dependent and undefined when comparing strings from different
scripts. `strcmp` does byte-wise ordering that correctly follows Unicode
code order for UTF-8 strings.
Migrate structure allocations from calloc to glibs g_new0 macro to
improve type safety and memory robustness.
* Type Safety: The macro takes the type name directly, ensuring the
allocated size always matches the pointer type.
* Static Analysis: It guarantees a non-NULL return by aborting on
failure, which silences -fanalyzer warnings regarding potential NULL
pointer dereferences.
* Readability: Removes redundant sizeof() calls and is the glib way
While trying to get the unit tests working again I stumbled over all those
things that I thought could be better^TM.
Now we also know "TODO: why does this make the test fail?" - because
the unit tests are brittle AF ... and we have to init the subsystems
we use in the test, otherwise the cleanup will fail...
BTW. you can now also only run a single test ... or a pattern or so ...
you'd have to read how `cmocka_set_test_filter()` works exactly.

After adding MAM quote and url autocompletion wouldn't pick up messages
from MAM or history(from DB) or would have them in the wrong order. This
commit fixes that.
Fixes https://github.com/profanity-im/profanity/issues/1770
Through asprintf() we can get rid of malloc() + sprintf().
Also we don't need to calculate the strlen() again since asprintf()
returns the bytes printes.
Only non UTF-8 characters. But that was true before already.
Instead of only checking for files when 'last_directory' has changed, do
it every time.
Add autocomplete_update function that updates the items while retaining
last_found and search_str.
Fixes#1099
