qa: cover ubuntu2604 differences in some test
qa/1429 - fix mkdir error message:
ubuntu2604 uses uutils coreutils which returns different error message
when mkdir command fails for a permission reason.
fix _filesize()
On Fedora/RHEL (and older distros), stat prints 'Size' while on Ubuntu
26.04 stat prints 'size'. The fix covers this difference and fixes
various tests using the stat command to get file size.

libpcp_web: accept NaN/Inf in series_pmAtomValue_conv_str on float/double
The first-character digit check rejected pmAtomStr_r() output like "nan"
from 0.0/0.0 on s390x (positive quiet NaN), breaking pmseries division
tests 1886 and 1906.
For some reason the FPU on s390x returns NaN with sign bit clear which
is different from most of the other architectures which return negative
NaN (sign bit set). Both ways are allowed by IEEE 754 which states only
that Nan should be returned (no sign defined).

qa/987: fix permissions and other problems
The tarballs this test uses have been created by various people
over time and they do not share the same ownerships and permissions.
The net result is that the test with the latest
qa/linux/xfs-root-003.tgz is failing on all the machines in the
QA Farm.
- half because of one variant of the permissions issue
- half because dodging the first permissions issue exposes a second
permissions issue that shows the committed 987.out is bad ... lots of
values are available but 987.out shows No values
Fix the script (big chmod hammer) and remake 987.out.

Makepkgs & qa/admin/myconfigure: use dh_auto_configure when available
For Debian builds this means
$ qa/admin/myconfigure
leaves the source tree in a state where
$ sudo make install
works for all the src/libpcp* directories because the Multilib path
below /usr/lib will be used to match the place the libraries are
installed by dpkg.
For Makepkgs this is pretty much a no-op, other than it will not
undo changes made by qa/admin/myconfigure.

pmie and summary PMDA: extra units changes
- pmie propagation of pmUnits in expression trees was seriously broken,
and had not been noticed because pmie does not check pmUnits for
compatibility of operands in expressions (another good reason to
prefer derived metrics over pmie expressions) ... the fixes here address
the obvious issues and in particular safe handling of extra units and
correct metadata for the default metrics exported from the summary PMDA
(which runs pmie in "secret agent" mode)
- revise default expressions for the summary PMDA metrics
summary.netif.packets and summary.netif.busy to consistently consider
only active network interfaces, and tweak the help text to better
match the semantics of the expressions used
- new qa/1665 and qa/1666 to exercise pmUnits handling for pmie
and the summary PMDA
- fix incorrect pmUnits fiddling for QA's broken PMDA
- fix incorrect pmUnits fiddling in qa/src/pducheck.c
- fix leftover fallout from pminfo -e and sample PMDA pmns changes with
some QA remakes
- qa/1426: rework to use modern network.tcp "drops" metrics rather than
_notrun when the Irix metrics are not available
- make _triage_wait_point() look for $here/$seq.wait by default, so it
works when a QA test has cd'd away from $here ... update COOKBOOK.md
to match
- assorted extra unit QA remakes and fixups, some from earlier changes
that had not been exposed to a full QA run with all the pmUnits
changes to date

extra units: next round of changes
- PM_UNITS_... renamed PM_UNIT_... so we're using the singular form
for macros, pmUnits field names ... library routines tend to use
ExtraUnits in the routine names because the "Units" routines already
existed and they typically relate to operations on a pmUnits struct
(where the name is pluralised)
- fix the 4:4 to 5:3 bit field split for .extraUnit and .extraScale
in the ! HAVE_BITFIELDS_LTOR alternate block (the sizes were round
the wrong way)
- upgrade the Str and Parse routines to accept extra units in the
dividend (.extraUnit > 0) or the divisor (.extraUnit < 0) which is
starting to make use of the extra bits and signedness of .extraUnit;
also extend qa/670 to exercise the related new code
- remade the qa/extra archive after fixing the change from a 4:4 to
5:3 bit field split for .extraUnit and .extraScale
- pmConvScale() now understands extra units and this required a new
table-driven __pmConvExtraScale() in src/libpcp/src/extraunits.c
to hide the "extra" units semantics from pmConvScale() and avoid
the nested switch mess that bidirectional N x M conversion would
otherwise require
- document pmiExtraUnits()
- update the pmLookupDesc(3) man page to provide the definitive
description of extra units ... this man page is cross-referenced from
many other man pages dealing the pmUnits
- additional man page changes for all of the above
- add pmunits "group" to qa/group and update all entries for QA tests
that dink with pmUnits
- extend qa/src/grind_conv.c to accept both a 6-tuple (classical)
and 8-tuple (classical + extra units) specification for both input
and output pmUnits

collectl2pcp: extra units changes
- update pmdesc.c to ...
+ only emit initializers for dimension and scale when dimension
is non-zero
+ emit extraUnit and extrScale initializers if required
- regenerate metrics.c (makefile updates to re-enable rule) which
has briefer pmUnits and some additional metrics (the PMNS has
moved on since Mark last generated metrics.c)
