While null StringViews are just as bad, these prevent the removal of
StringView(char const*) as that constructor accepts a nullptr.
No functional changes.
This will allow regex::Lexer users to invoke GenericLexer consumption
methods, such as GenericLexer::consume_escaped_codepoint().
This also allows for de-duplicating common methods between the lexers.
Some of the code assumed that chars were always signed while that is
not the case on ARM hosts.
Also, some of the code tried to use EOF (-1) in a way similar to what
fgetc() does, however instead of storing the characters in an int
variable a char was used.
While this seemed to work it also meant that character 0xFF would be
incorrectly seen as an end-of-file.
Careful reading of fgetc() reveals that fgetc() stores character
data in an int where valid characters are in the range of 0-255 and
the EOF value is explicitly outside of that range (usually -1).

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

This only applies to the ECMA262 parser.
This behaviour is an ECMA262-specific quirk, such references always
generate zero-length matches (even on subsequent passes).
Also adds a test in LibJS's test suite.
Fixes#6039.
