Lots more unit tests and code cleanup

Relevant changes from ChangeLog

	o job.c: Print -de error information when running multiple jobs
	o var.c: only report error for unmatched regex subexpression
	when linting (-dL) since we cannot tell when an unmatched
	subexpression is an expected result.
	reduce memory allocations in the modifiers ':D' and ':U'
	reduce memory allocation and strlen calls in modifier ':from=to'
	in the ':Q' modifier, only allocate memory if necessary
	improve performance for LazyBuf
	reduce debug logging and memory allocation for ${:U...}
	reduce verbosity of the -dv debug logging for standard cases
	fix double varname expansion in the variable modifier '::='
	o var.c: avoid evaluating many modifiers in parse only mode
	in strict mode (-dL) many variable references are parsed twice,
	the first time just to report parse errors early, so we want to
	avoid side effects and wasted effort to the extent possible.

# $NetBSD: varname-empty.mk,v 1.9 2021/04/04 10:13:09 rillig Exp $
#
# Tests for the special variable with the empty name.
#
# There is no variable named "" at all, and this fact is used a lot in
# variable expressions of the form ${:Ufallback}. These expressions are
# based on the variable named "" and use the :U modifier to assign a
# fallback value to the expression (but not to the variable).
#
# This form of expressions is used to implement value substitution in the
# .for loops. Another use case is in a variable assignment of the form
# ${:Uvarname}=value, which allows for characters in the variable name that
# would otherwise be interpreted by the parser, such as whitespace, ':',
# '=', '$', backslash.
#
# The only places where a variable is assigned a value are Var_Set and
# Var_Append, and these places protect the variable named "" from being
# defined. This is different from read-only variables, as that flag can
# only apply to variables that are defined. The variable named "" must
# never be defined though.
#
# See also:
# The special variables @F or ^D, in var-class-local.mk
# Until 2020-08-22 it was possible to assign a value to the variable with
# the empty name, leading to all kinds of unexpected effects in .for loops
# and other places that assume that ${:Ufallback} expands to "fallback".
# The bug in Var_Set was that only expanded variables had been checked for
# the empty name, but not the direct assignments with an empty name.

# Before 2020-08-22, the simple assignment operator '=' after an empty
# variable name had an off-by-one bug in Parse_Var. The code that was
# supposed to "skip to operator character" started its search _after_ the
# assignment operator, assuming that the variable name would be at least
# one character long. It then looked for the next occurrence of a '=', which
# could be several lines away or not occur at all. While looking for the
# '=', some whitespace was nulled out, leading to out-of-bounds write.

# This only works if the variable with the empty name is guaranteed to
