Restore MysterX-style handling of parameterzied properties in
`com-get-property'. It turns out that the original `com-get-property'
handles parameterized properties by allowing a list in place of a
property-name string, and that handling got lost in the re-write.
Fix the name of `com-get-active-from-from-coclass'.
Fix arity checking for optional arguments.

These additions could create backward-compatibility problems, but our
searches suggest that problems will be rare; it's more common for
`_size_t' to be incorrectly aliased to `_int', so having definitions
for these standard types is likely to avoid future problems.
Includes a repair for floating-point `min' and `max' that affects all
x86 builds that use SSE arithmetic, leaving the (otherwise unused)
floating-point stack in a bad state, which might have affected
x87-using C/foreign libraries running alongside Racket.
Turn use of a finalized ffi callout into a reported error,
instead of a crash. Clarify the existence of the finalizer
in the docs. Fix error logging of the finalizer thread.
Merge to v5.3.1
The old `cast' didn't work right for a mismatch between
a pointer GCableness and the source or target types, and
it didn't work right for an GCable pointer with a non-zero
offset. While those pitfalls were documented, the first
of them definitely has been a source of bugs in code that
I wrote.
Also added `cpointer-gcable?'
* The old function was removed completely, people will get it from
`racket/base' anyway.
* I also removed its documentation. I thought about leaving a note in,
but if `define-ffi-definer' is the preferred style, then this should
be done when there's a way to make `define-ffi-definer' use it. (Eg,
some new #:keyword that adds a way to change the defined name.)
* Note that the function is added to `racket/private/string' and not to
`racket/string' because the latter deals only with strings, and the
new function accepts byte strings too. It might be better to start a
new `racket/regexp' module for these functions.
Also, fix FFI procedures to preserve names: change `ptr-ref' with
`_fpointer' on an `ffi-obj' value to return the `ffi-obj'
value, so that the name in the `ffi-obj' value can be used
by `_cprocedure'.
Closes PR 12645
Extend `define-cstruct' to support #:property specs, which causes
the constructor and C->Racket coercsions to wrap the pointer in
a structure instance with the specified properties. Of course,
the wrapper structure has a `prop:cpointer' property so that the
wrapper can be used transparently as a C pointer.
Add missing tests and documentation for the id`->list', `list->'id,
id`->list*', and `list*->'id bindings created by `define-cstruct'.
