YAML::XS 1.2 / OOP / YAML::PP compatibility
I continued working YAML::XS: YAML 1.2 Core Schema + the Object Oriented Interface.
I started this at SUSE Hackweek 2024.
At the PTS I changed the Proof of Concept matching of special values from a Perl Regex to C code.
I also fixed a segmentation fault that was happening when there was an exception in the loader and the DESTROY method was called before the exception handling, invalidating a pointer.
I updated the pull request and made a trial release. I can hopefully make a regular release in the next few days (but still marking the new interface as experimental).
There are also a couple of new options like utf8, header, footer, width, require_footer and anchor_prefix, that the old interface doesn't have.
YAML::Syck
Helped with a little YAML::Syck issue
