Without this patch, BusyBox handles bash pattern substitutions without
a terminating '/' character incorrectly.
Consider the following shell script:
_bootstrapver=5.0.211-r0
_referencesdir="/usr/${_bootstrapver/-*}/Sources"
echo $_referencesdir
This should output `/usr/5.0.211/Sources`. However, without this patch
it instead outputs `/usr/5.0.211Sources`. This is due to the fact that
BusyBox expects the bash pattern substitutions to always be terminated
with a '/' (at least in this part of subvareval) and thus reads passed
the substitution itself and consumes the '/' character which is part of
the literal string. If there is no '/' after the substitution then
BusyBox might perform an out-of-bounds read under certain circumstances.
When replacing the bash pattern substitution with `${_bootstrapver/-*/}`,
or with this patch applied, ash outputs the correct value.

With bash's read builtin it is possible to read from a file (e.g.
device-tree) until the first '\0' character:
IFS= read -r -d '' VARIABLE < file
In busybox ash the -d extension is also implemented, but checking the
read character for '\0' has to be performed after comparing with the
delimiter.

expand: Ensure result is escaped in cvtnum
The minus sign generated from arithmetic expansion is currently
unquoted which causes anomalies when the result is used in where
the quoting matters.
This patch fixes it by explicitly calling memtodest on the result
in cvtnum.

expand: Fix trailing newlines processing in backquote expanding
According to POSIX.1-2008 we should remove newlines only at the end of
the substitution. Newlines-only substitions causes dash to remove
newlines before beggining of the substitution. The following code:
cat <<END
1
$(echo "")
2
END
prints "1<newline>2" instead of expected "1<newline><newline>2".
This patch fixes trailing newlines processing in backquote expanding.

expand: Do not quote backslashes in unquoted parameter expansion
Here is a better example:
a="/*/\nullx" b="/*/\null"; printf "%s\n" $a $b
dash currently prints
/*/\nullx
/*/\null
bash prints
/*/\nullx
/dev/null
You may argue the bash behaviour is inconsistent but it actually
makes sense. What happens is that quote removal only applies to
the original token as seen by the shell. It is never applied to
the result of parameter expansion.
Now you may ask why on earth does the second line say "/dev/null"
instead of "/dev/\null". Well that's because it is not the quote
removal step that removed the backslash, but the pathname expansion.
The fact that the /de\v does not become /dev even though it exists
is just the result of the optimisation to avoid unnecessarily
calling stat(2). I have checked POSIX and I don't see anything
that forbids this behaviour.
So going back to dash yes I think we should adopt the bash behaviour
for pathname expansion and keep the existing case semantics.
This patch does exactly that. Note that this patch does not work
unless you have already applied
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10306507/
because otherwise the optimisation mentioned above does not get
detected correctly and we will end up doing quote removal twice.
This patch also updates expmeta to handle naked backslashes at
the end of the pattern which is now possible.

expand: Fix ghost fields with unquoted $@/$*
You're right. The proper fix to this is to ensure that nulonly
is not set in varvalue for $*. It should only be set for $@ when
it's inside double quotes.
In fact there is another bug while we're playing with $@/$*.
When IFS is set to a non-whitespace character such as :, $*
outside quotes won't remove empty fields as it should.
This patch fixes both problems.

POSIX used to require the current dash behaviour. However, you're
right that this is no longer the case.
This patch will remove the persistence of the variable assignment.
I have considered the exporting the variables during the function
execution but have decided against it because:
1) It makes the code bigger.
2) dash has never done this in the past.
3) You cannot use this portably anyway.

This necessitates switch from libc FILE api to a simple
homegrown replacement.
The change which fixes the bug here is the deleting of
restore_redirected_FILEs();
line. It was prematurely moving (restoring) script fd#3.
The fix is: we don't even _want_ to restore scrit fds,
we are perfectly fine with them being moved.
The only reason we tried to restore them is that FILE api
did not allow moving of FILE->fd.
