The test marked as expected to fail in /usr/tests/lib/libc/locale/mbrtowctest (https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/7bddbea75ccbb4c0d4a2ca5b0e8ce713a878b016/contrib/netbsd-tests/lib/libc/locale/t_mbrtowc.c#L242) seems to be showing a real issue -- when changing ctype component of locale, we can have a state that is perfectly normal for previous locale encoding, and is invalid for new one, leading to unexpected conversion failure. More so, when the locale encoding changes, the meaning of data in opaque structure __mbstate changes as well (every encoding seems to have its own structure). All this lead me to this change resetting the persistent mbstates when new rune locale data is loaded, which required moving the fields from struct _xlocale to its ctype component.
