Christian Grasser a61b03ea88 Update Scintilla from v4.4.6 to v5.2.1 and add Lexilla v5.1.5
Update with https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla521.zip
            https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla515.zip

- fix setting to bring Scintilla::PositionCR from ScintillaStructures.h inline with Sci_Position.h Sci_PositionCR
- add workaround to enable lexer for searchResult
commented out SCI_SETILEXER call on searchResult to get one result which is correctly handled by the lexer,
added comment about the current problem with property @MarkingsStruct which seems to disappear after call to SCI_SETILEXER or CreateLexer
- corrected usage of ObjC lexer
- removed unnecessary filter stuff
- use own sections for scintilla and lexilla build targets and allow parallel builds
- as libscilex is no longer existing, changed to libscintilla
- adapt makefiles and cmake
- use VS2019
- started simple changes for createlexer adaptations, nullpointercheck missing on return of lexer name from deprecated LexerNameFromID -> undefined behaviour
- movement from id -> lexer name, mostly done via LexerNameFromID + switching off corresponding compiler warning
- changed to SCI_SETILEXER from SCI_SETLEXER, SCI_SETLEXERLANGUAGE needs to be corrected, see Scintilla5Migration.html
- just commented out: SCI_LOADLEXERLIBRARY

Fix #10504, close #11419

Lexilla is on GitHub at https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla
Bugs, fixes and features should be posted to the Issue Tracker
https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/issues
Patches should include test cases. Add a test case file in
lexilla/test/examples/<language> and run the test program in
lexilla/test.
The result will be new files with ".styled.new" and ".folded.new"
appended containing lexing or folding results.
For lexing, there are brace surrounded style numbers for each style
start as markup:
{5}import{0} {11}contextlib{0}
For folding, there are 4 columns of folding results preceding the example text:
2 400 0 + --[[ coding:UTF-8
0 402 0 | comment ]]
See the test/README file for more explanation of the folding results.
To build lexilla and the tests with gcc there are Windows batch
and Unix shell files scripts/RunTest.bat scripts/RunTest.sh.
Check the result of the .new files and, if correct, rename replacing
".styled.new" with ".styled" and ".folded.new" with ".folded".
Run the tests again and success should be reported.
Include the .styled and .folded files in the patch.
Including test cases ensures that the change won't be undone by
other changes in the future and clarifies the intentions of the author.
Either send unified diffs (or patch files) or zip archives with whole files.
Mercurial/Git patch files are best as they include author information and commit
messages.
Questions should go to the scintilla-interest mailing list

Code should follow the guidelines at

Lexilla is on GitHub so use its facilities rather than SourceForge which is
the home of Scintilla.
The neilh @ scintilla.org account receives much spam and is only checked
occasionally. Almost all Scintilla mail should go to the mailing list.
