Something is fishy with constrcts like "3==v=3" in gawk,
they should not work, but do. Ignore those for now.

Patch by M Rubon <rubonmtz@gmail.com>:
Busybox awk handles references to empty (not provided in the input)
fields differently during the first line of input, as compared to
subsequent lines.
$ (echo a ; echo b) | awk '$2 != 0' #wrong
b
No field $2 value is provided in the input. When awk references field
$2 for the "a" line, it is seen to have a different behaviour than
when it is referenced for the "b" line.
Problem in BusyBox v1.36.1 embedded in OpenWrt 23.05.0
Same problem also in 21.02 versions of OpenWrt
Same problem in BusyBox v1.37.0.git
I get the correct expected output from Ubuntu gawk and Debian mawk,
and from my fix.
will@dev:~$ (echo a ; echo b) | awk '$2 != 0' #correct
a
b
will@dev:~/busybox$ (echo a ; echo b ) | ./busybox awk '$2 != 0' #fixed
a
b
I built and poked into the source code at editors/awk.c The function
fsrealloc(int size) is core to allocating, initializing, reallocating,
and reinitializing fields, both real input line fields and imaginary
fields that the script references but do not exist in the input.
When fsrealloc() needs more field space than it has previously
allocated, it initializes those new fields differently than how they
are later reinitialized for the next input line. This works fine for
fields defined in the input, like $1, but does not work the first time
when there is no input for that field (e.g. field $99)
My one-line fix simply makes the initialization and clrvar()
reinitialization use the same value for .type. I am not sure if there
are regression tests to run, but I have not done those.
I'm not sure if I understand why clrvar() is not setting .type to a
default constant value, but in any case I have left that untouched.

A refactor of the awk printf code in
e2e3802987
appears to have broken the printf interpretation of two percent signs,
which normally outputs only one percent sign.
The patch below brings busybox awk printf behavior back into alignment
with the pre-e2e380 behavior, the busybox printf util, and other common
(awk and non-awk) printf implementations.

Treat the output of printf as binary rather than a null-terminated
string so that NUL characters can be output.
This is considered to be a GNU extension, though it's also available
in mawk and FreeBSD's awk.

Unlike exit and return, delete strictly requires an arg, and derefs a
null pointer if executed without one.

Avoids an uninit pointer deref for some malformed ternary exprs.
Add a test that would crash in busybox before this fix.

This change retains "or later" state! No licensing _changes_ here,
only form is adjusted (article, space between "GPL" and "v2" and so on).
