nxt_cpymem() is basically mempcpy(3)
Like mempcpy() nxt_cpymem() returns a void *.
nxt_cpymem() is implemented as a wrapper around memcpy(3), however
before returning the new pointer value we cast the return of memcpy(3)
to a u_char *, then add the length parameter to it.
I guess this was done to support compilers that do not support
arithmetic on void pointers as the C standard forbids it.
However since we removed support for compilers other than GCC and Clang
(ending in commit 9cd11133 ("Remove support for Sun's Sun Studio/SunPro
C compiler")) this is no longer an issue as both GCC and Clang support
arithmetic on void pointers (without the -pedantic option) by treating
the size of a void as 1.
While removing the unnecessary casting in this case doesn't necessarily
improve type-safety (as we're dealing with void *'s in and out), it does
just make the code that little more readable.
Oh and for interest we have actually already been relying on this
extension

The casts are unnecessary, since memchr(3)'s argument is 'const void *'.
It might have been necessary in the times of K&R, where 'void *' didn't
exist. Nowadays, it's unnecessary, and _very_ unsafe, since casts can
hide all classes of bugs by silencing most compiler warnings.
The changes from nxt_memchr() to memchr(3) were scripted:
$ find src/ -type f \
| grep '\.[ch]$' \
| xargs sed -i 's/nxt_memchr/memchr/'

As was pointed out by the cppcheck[0] static code analysis utility we
can mark numerous function parameters as 'const'. This acts as a hint to
the compiler about our intentions and the compiler will tell us when we
deviate from them.

We had a mix of styles for declaring function-like macros:
Style A:
#define \
foo() \
do { \
... \
} while (0)
Style B:
#define foo() \
do { \
... \
} while (0)
We had a similar number of occurences of each style:
$ grep -rnI '^\w*(.*\\' | wc -l
244
$ grep -rn 'define.*(.*)' | wc -l
239
(Those regexes aren't perfect, but a very decent approximation.)
Real examples:
$ find src -type f | xargs sed -n '/^nxt_double_is_zero/,/^$/p'
nxt_double_is_zero(f) \
(fabs(f) <= FLT_EPSILON)
$ find src -type f | xargs sed -n '/define nxt_http_field_set/,/^$/p'
#define nxt_http_field_set(_field, _name, _value) \
do { \
(_field)->name_length = nxt_length(_name); \
(_field)->value_length = nxt_length(_value); \
(_field)->name = (u_char *) _name; \
(_field)->value = (u_char *) _value; \
} while (0)
I'd like to standardize on a single style for them, and IMO,
having the identifier in the same line as #define is a better
option for the following reasons:
- Programmers are used to `#define foo() ...` (readability).
- One less line of code.
- The program for finding them is really simple (see below).

{
if (($# != 1)); then
>&2 echo "Usage: ${FUNCNAME[0]} <func>";

Compared to the previous implementation based on OpenSSL, the new implementation
has these advantages:
1. Strict and reliable detection of invalid strings, including strings with
less than 4 bytes of garbage at the end;
2. Allows to use Base64 strings without '=' padding.

This fixes building with GCC 10, which is default to -fno-common.
