This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

Use the new futimens syscall to ensure futimens can actually work.
This change for example allows a user to run "touch non-existing-file"
without getting any error, as expected.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
POSIX describes WCHAR_MIN and WCHAR_MAX in stdint.h(0P), while
wchar.h(0P) only says "as described in stdint.h".
As there isn't a trivial path of "may make visible", just move it to a
shared header and include it from both files.
In C++, a function declaration with an empty parameter list means that
the function takes no arguments. In C, however, it means that the
function takes an unspecified number of parameters.
What we did previously was therefore non-conforming. This caused a
config check to fail in the curl port, as it was able to redeclare
`rand` as taking an int parameter.
POSIX mandates that the macros contained in `stdint.h` be suitable for
use by the C preprocessor.
If we write `((size_t)-1)`, the C preprocessor will just skip the cast
and treat the value as `-1`. This means that we end up taking the wrong
branch in an `#if` directive like `#if SIZE_MAX > UINT32_MAX`.
This fixes building the LLVM port on i686.
x86_64 is an LP64 platform, so its `uint64_t` type is defined to be
`unsigned long`, not `unsigned long long` like on i686. This means that
the `UL` literal suffix should be used instead of `ULL`.
Furthermore, `uintptr_t` is 64 bits wide on x86_64, so defining
`UINTPTR_MAX` to be `UINT32_MAX` is also not correct.
This is a private function that locks the lock much like the regular
pthread_mutex_lock(), but causes the corresponding unlock operation to
always assume there may be other waiters. This is useful in case some
waiters are made to wait on the mutex's futex directly, without going
through pthread_mutex_lock(). This is going to be used by the condition
variable implementation in the next commit.
pthread_mutex is now an actual "sleeping" mutex, and not just a
spinlock! It still has a fast path that only uses atomics and (in the
successful case) returns immediately without sleeping. In case of
contention, it calls futex_wait(), which lets the kernel scheduler put
this thread to sleep, *and* lets it know exactly when to consider
scheduling it again.

GCC will insert various calls to pthread functions when compiling
C++ code with static initializers, even when the user doesn't link
their program against libpthread explicitly.
This is used to make static initializers thread-safe, e.g. when
building a library that does not itself use thread functionality
and thus does not link against libpthread - but is intended to
be used with other code that does use libpthread explicitly.
This makes these symbols available in libc.
GCC installs a fixed version of the <limits.h> header as per https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Fixed-Headers.html.
The fixed header doesn't include the target's <limits.h> which in turn means that some definitions (such as PATH_MAX)
aren't available. This change requires rebuilding the toolchain (Toolchain/BuildIt.sh).
This fixes the flatbuffers port.
The commit also removes some non-standard defines (U*_MIN) which don't appear to be used
anywhere. By definition they're always 0 though so they're not strictly necessary.
This required a bit of rearchitecture, as pthread_atfork() required a
mutex, and duplicating a mutex impl for it was silly.
As such, this patch moves some standalone bits of pthread into LibC and
uses those to implement atfork().
It should be noted that for programs that don't use atfork(), this
mechanism only costs two atomic loads (as opposed to the normal mutex
lock+unlock) :^)
