The C cache (now used only by the reference codecs) moves to
tests/reference and src/uthash.h is deleted. ACL rules and ss-manager's
servers are ListNodes on IntrusiveLists; destroying an element unlinks
it, so the free paths no longer have to remember to. core.h keeps only
ss_ip. test_rule is ported to C++ and also covers literal rules.
Rename the project to shadowsocks-c while retaining ss-* commands, the embedding ABI, and legacy library/package lookup compatibility.
Replace libev with bundled libuv for IOCP/kqueue event backends, expand asynchronous runtime DNS coverage, and add actionlint/Ruff with strict clang-tidy failure handling. Validate native platforms, static builds, packaging, interoperability, sanitizers, and canonical/legacy consumers.
All 22 hosted checks pass at reviewed head a8493250eb.
Bundle pinned offline dependencies, remove libcork/libipset and submodule requirements, and add portable runtime helpers with relocatable static/shared library installations.
Add Clang static build validation for Linux/musl, macOS and Windows, real TCP/UDP and SIP003 interoperability coverage, and recorded performance tradeoffs. All 21 hosted checks pass at the reviewed PR head 8d504e6218.
