Enough users expect the namespace starting with underscore to be safe
for symbols. Change our private namespace from __foo__ to
__?foo?__. Use %defalias to provide backwards compatiblity (by using
%defalias instead of %define, we handle the case properly where the
user changes the value.)
Add a preprocessor directive:
%aliases off
... to disable all smacro aliases and thereby making the namespace
clean.
Finally, fix infinite recursion when seeing %? or %?? due to
paste_tokens(). If we don't paste anything, the expansion is done.

*To the best of my knowledge*, we now have authorization from everyone
who has significantly contributed to NASM in the past. As such,
change the license to the 2-clause BSD license.

Move the handling of "extra" macros (i.e. output format macros) into
the macros.pl mechanism. This allows us to change the format of the
internal macro store in the future - e.g. to a single byte store
without redundant pointers.
Also, stop using indicies into a long array when there is no good
reason to not just use different arrays.
