libCa shouldn't cause an application to abort with an uncaught
exception on a machine that has timezone problems just because
we can't convert the current time into a string.
The other Perl scripts that use FindBin for their lib path could
have the same changes applied, but these two scripts are the ones
normally run by hand so might get soft-linked by an installer.
Without this change these scripts don't actually work if run from
a soft-link instead of directly.
* CPP's defined() is UB outside of a #if line
* Use (void)! cast to prevent recent GCCs & glibc from warning
about ignoring the return status from chdir()
caProto.h was using IPPORT_USERRESERVED but not including itself,
meaning there was an order dependency of header inclusion when using
this header. Now there shouldn't be.
Also, RTEMS wasn't defining IPPORT_USERRESERVED, so that definition
has been added.
In some cases the license-identification header was missing,
so I added that as well. Replaced the remaining headers that
specifically identified "Versions 3.13.7 and higher".
Makefiles and the build system were deliberately excluded.
Use the pre-expanded Perl configuration variables.
Conda builds of Perl need these (and a fix to the Perl
config files, see https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/8425
for details).
When using an EPICS 7 softIoc.dbd file with a PV from an older version
of Base which didn't have all the fields, our attempts to read those
fields will time out, but the internal logic was buggy. Don't try to
print the values of timed out fields at all. The user will still see a
warning about connection timeouts at the top.

Modifications to allow for CA multicast listening by adding multicast address
from EPICS_CA_BEACON_ADDR_LIST (or EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST if beacon list is empty).
