Summary0001049: Standardise strtod_l and friends
DescriptionMost string to number parsing functions are locale dependant. Many libcs already have variants to the existing functions (such as strtod) that in addition to the usual arguments, take a locale.


Existing implementations:

  - musl
  - glibc
  - darwin (Mac OSX)
  - freebsd
  - netbsd
  - Microsoft (since MSVC2005) (with prefix)


Infact, often `strtod` is **already** implemented in terms of a strtod_l function.
Desired ActionThe following definitions should be added in stdlib.h:

  - atof_l
  - atoi_l
  - atol_l
  - atoll_l
  - mblen_l
  - mbstowcs_l
  - mbtowc_l
  - strtod_l
  - strtof_l
  - strtol_l
  - strtold_l
  - strtoll_l
  - strtoq_l
  - strtoul_l
  - strtoull_l
  - strtouq_l
  - wcstombs_l
  - wctomb_l

Each with the same signatures as their non '-l' suffixed equivalents, except for an added final `locale_t` argument.
TagsNo tags attached.

Yes. I believe so (search didn't manage to find it/I was using the wrong terms.)
