allow locale's decimal point as radix character when parsing fixed-point decimal into seconds and fractional seconds; handle case of shell script file descriptor being made non-blocking; fix smalkl memory leak in programmable completion of shell option names; fix for patsub_replacement behavior when BASH_COMPAT = 42 and the replacement string is quoted; fix for readine when changing show-mode-in-prompt variable

+subst.c
+	- expand_string_for_patsub42: new function, uses code from bash-4.2 to
+	  expand the pattern replacement string if patsub_replacement is not
+	  set; calls expand_string_for_patsub with the same value for QUOTING
+	  to quote patsub_replacement strings appropriately if it is set.
+	  This means that double-quoting the pattern substitution has the
+	  effect of quoting any `&' in the replacement string, which is iffy
+	  but closer to what bash-4.2 did
+	- parameter_brace_patsub: call expand_string_for_patsub42 if the
+	  shell compatibility level is <= 42
+	- quote_string_for_repl: if the shell compatibility level is <= 42
+	  and the replacement string is quoted, quote backslashes that quote
+	  `&' or `\' so strcreplace() preserves them
+	  Fixes most patsub_replacement compatibility issues with bash-4.2
