-----------
regexec.c - preserve COW-backed subbeg state across /(?{})/
Fix the capture-string save/restore bug when /(?{})/ temporarily
retargets RXp_SUBBEG to the current string. We must preserve both
heap-copied subbeg state and saved_copy-backed COW state so that cleanup
restores the original pointer values and ownership flags consistently.
Add regressions for the minimal cases discussed in GH #16952 and its
migrated RT ticket RT #134026, and for the later duplicate report
GH #24338: the stale capture case, the direct fetch of $&, and the
substitution form that used to assert on debugging builds.
