  Date:   2023-02-21 (Tue, 21 Feb 2023)

  Changed paths:
    M Configure
    M Porting/config_H
    M Porting/config_h.pl
    M config_h.SH

  Log Message:
  -----------
  Replace "define\t" with "define " in Configure/metaconfig related files

This is broken out so it is easier for Tux to find and merge with
metaconfig.

View this patch with -w and you will see "no changes" except for
config_h.SH and Porting/config_h.pl both which needed to be changed to
ensure that they produce output that doesn't replicate the problem.

  Log Message:
  -----------
  dist/IO: replace "define\t" with "define "

This cleans up the defines in dist/IO/poll.h.

"#define\t" is annoying as it is it 8 spaces wide, so it looks like
"#define ", yet will not be found in a grep for "define foo" as the
space is actually a tab.

  Log Message:
  -----------
  replace "define\t" with "define " in most "normal" core files.

The main exceptions being dist/, ext/, and Configure related
files, which will be updated in a subsequent commit. Files in the cpan/
directory are also omitted as they are not owned by the core.

'#define' has seven characters, so following it with a \t makes it look
like '#define ' when it is not, which then frustrates attempts to find
where a given define is. If you *know* then you do a

    git grep -P 'define\s+WHATEVER'

but if don't or you forget, you can get very confused trying to find
where a given define is located. This fixes all such cases so they
actually are 'define WHATEVER' instead.

If this patch is getting in your way with blame analysis then view it
with the -w option to blame.
