Implement P0482R5, char8_t: A type for UTF-8 characters and strings
gcc/cp/
* cvt.c (type_promotes_to): Handle char8_t promotion.
* decl.c (grokdeclarator): Handle invalid type specifier
combinations involving char8_t.
* lex.c (init_reswords): Add char8_t as a reserved word.
* mangle.c (write_builtin_type): Add name mangling for char8_t (Du).
* parser.c (cp_keyword_starts_decl_specifier_p)
(cp_parser_simple_type_specifier): Recognize char8_t as a simple
type specifier.
(cp_parser_string_literal): Use char8_array_type_node for the type
of CPP_UTF8STRING.
(cp_parser_set_decl_spec_type): Tolerate char8_t typedefs in system
headers.
* rtti.c (emit_support_tinfos): type_info support for char8_t.
* tree.c (char_type_p): Recognize char8_t as a character type.
* typeck.c (string_conv_p): Handle conversions of u8 string
literals of char8_t type.
(check_literal_operator_args): Handle UDLs with u8 string literals
of char8_t type.
* typeck2.c (ordinary_char_type_p): New.
(digest_init_r): Disallow initializing a char array with a u8 string
literal.
gcc/c-family/
* c-common.c (c_common_reswords): Add char8_t.
(fix_string_type): Use char8_t for the type of u8 string literals.
(c_common_get_alias_set): char8_t doesn't alias.
(c_common_nodes_and_builtins): Define char8_t as a builtin type in
C++.
(c_stddef_cpp_builtins): Add __CHAR8_TYPE__.
(keyword_begins_type_specifier): Add RID_CHAR8.
* c-common.h (rid): Add RID_CHAR8.
(c_tree_index): Add CTI_CHAR8_TYPE and CTI_CHAR8_ARRAY_TYPE.
Define D_CXX_CHAR8_T and D_CXX_CHAR8_T_FLAGS.
Define char8_type_node and char8_array_type_node.

__GCC_ATOMIC_CHAR8_T_LOCK_FREE.
(c_cpp_builtins): Predefine __cpp_char8_t.
* c-lex.c (lex_string): Use char8_array_type_node as the type of
CPP_UTF8STRING.
(lex_charconst): Use char8_type_node as the type of CPP_UTF8CHAR.
* c-opts.c: If not otherwise specified, enable -fchar8_t when
targeting C++2a.
* c.opt: Add the -fchar8_t command line option.
libiberty/
* cp-demangle.c (cplus_demangle_builtin_types)
(cplus_demangle_type): Add name demangling for char8_t (Du).
* cp-demangle.h: Increase D_BUILTIN_TYPE_COUNT to accommodate the
new char8_t type.
