Port illumos' shell linter improvements (#353)
This commit ports over two improvements to the shell linter from
illumos (original patch written by Andy Fiddaman). Links to the
relevant bug reports and the original patch:

The first improvement is to the lint warning for arithmetic
operators in [[ ... ]]. The ksh linter now suggests the correct
equivalent operator to use in ((...)). Example:
$ ksh -nc '[[ 30 -gt 25 ]]'
# Original warning
warning: line 1: -gt within [[ ... ]] obsolete, use ((...))
# New warning
warning: line 1: [[ ... -gt ... ]] obsolete, use ((... > ...))
The second improvement pertains to variable expansion in arithmetic
expressions. The ksh linter now suggests referencing variable names
directly:
$ ksh -nc 'integer foo=40; (($foo < 50 ))'
# Old warning
warning: line 1: variable expansion makes arithmetic evaluation less efficient
# New warning
warning: line 1: in '(($foo < 50))', using '$' is slower and can introduce rounding errors
src/cmd/ksh93/{data/lexstates,sh/lex,sh/parse}.c:
- Port the improved shell lint warnings from illumos to ksh93u+m.
- The original checks for arithmetic operators involved a bunch of
if statements with inefficient calls to strcmp(3). These were
replaced with a more efficient switch statement that avoids
strcmp.
