specialize io::copy to use copy_file_range, splice or sendfile
Fixes#74426.
Also covers #60689 but only as an optimization instead of an official API.
The specialization only covers std-owned structs so it should avoid the problems with #71091
Currently linux-only but it should be generalizable to other unix systems that have sendfile/sosplice and similar.
There is a bit of optimization potential around the syscall count. Right now it may end up doing more syscalls than the naive copy loop when doing short (<8KiB) copies between file descriptors.
The test case executes the following:
```
[pid 103776] statx(3, "", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT|AT_EMPTY_PATH, STATX_ALL, {stx_mask=STATX_ALL|STATX_MNT_ID, stx_attributes=0, stx_mode=S_IFREG|0644, stx_size=17, ...}) = 0
[pid 103776] write(4, "wxyz", 4) = 4
[pid 103776] write(4, "iklmn", 5) = 5
[pid 103776] copy_file_range(3, NULL, 4, NULL, 5, 0) = 5
```
0-1 `stat` calls to identify the source file type. 0 if the type can be inferred from the struct from which the FD was extracted
𝖬 `write` to drain the `BufReader`/`BufWriter` wrappers. only happen when buffers are present. 𝖬 ≾ number of wrappers present. If there is a write buffer it may absorb the read buffer contents first so only result in a single write. Vectored writes would also be an option but that would require more invasive changes to `BufWriter`.
𝖭 `copy_file_range`/`splice`/`sendfile` until file size, EOF or the byte limit from `Take` is reached. This should generally be *much* more efficient than the read-write loop and also have other benefits such as DMA offload or extent sharing.

Previously EOVERFLOW handling was only applied for io::copy specialization
but not for fs::copy sharing the same code.
Additionally we lower the chunk size to 1GB since we have a user report
that older kernels may return EINVAL when passing 0x8000_0000
but smaller values succeed.
Android builds use feature level 14, the libc wrapper for splice is gated
on feature level 21+ so we have to invoke the syscall directly.
Additionally the emulator doesn't seem to support it so we also have to
add ENOSYS checks.
Update thread and futex APIs to work with Emscripten
This updates the thread and futex APIs in `std` to match the APIs exposed by
Emscripten. This allows threads to run on `wasm32-unknown-emscripten` and the
thread parker to compile without errors related to the missing `futex` module.
To make use of this, Rust code must be compiled with `-C target-feature=atomics`
and Emscripten must link with `-pthread`.
I have confirmed this works well locally when building multithreaded crates.
Attempting to enable `std` thread tests currently fails for seemingly obscure
reasons and Emscripten is currently disabled in CI, so further work is needed to
have proper test coverage here.

Duration::zero() -> Duration::ZERO
In review for #72790, whether or not a constant or a function should be favored for `#![feature(duration_zero)]` was seen as an open question. In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/73544#issuecomment-691701670 an invitation was opened to either stabilize the methods or propose a switch to the constant value, supplemented with reasoning. Followup comments suggested community preference leans towards the const ZERO, which would be reason enough.
ZERO also "makes sense" beside existing associated consts for Duration. It is ever so slightly awkward to have a series of constants specifying 1 of various units but leave 0 as a method, especially when they are side-by-side in code. It seems unintuitive for the one non-dynamic value (that isn't from Default) to be not-a-const, which could hurt discoverability of the associated constants overall. Elsewhere in `std`, methods for obtaining a constant value were even deprecated, as seen with [std::u32::min_value](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.u32.html#method.min_value).
Most importantly, ZERO costs less to use. A match supports a const pattern, but const fn can only be used if evaluated through a const context such as an inline `const { const_fn() }` or a `const NAME: T = const_fn()` declaration elsewhere. Likewise, while https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/73544#issuecomment-691949373 notes `Duration::zero()` can optimize to a constant value, "can" is not "will". Only const contexts have a strong promise of such. Even without that in mind, the comment in question still leans in favor of the constant for simplicity. As it costs less for a developer to use, may cost less to optimize, and seems to have more of a community consensus for it, the associated const seems best.

The discussion seems to have resolved that this lint is a bit "noisy" in
that applying it in all places would result in a reduction in
readability.
A few of the trivial functions (like `Path::new`) are fine to leave
outside of closures.
The general rule seems to be that anything that is obviously an
allocation (`Box`, `Vec`, `vec![]`) should be in a closure, even if it
is a 0-sized allocation.
Define `fs::hard_link` to not follow symlinks.
POSIX leaves it [implementation-defined] whether `link` follows symlinks.
In practice, for example, on Linux it does not and on FreeBSD it does.
So, switch to `linkat`, so that we can pick a behavior rather than
depending on OS defaults.
Pick the option to not follow symlinks. This is somewhat arbitrary, but
seems the less surprising choice because hard linking is a very
low-level feature which requires the source and destination to be on
the same mounted filesystem, and following a symbolic link could end
up in a different mounted filesystem.

Use Intra-doc links for std::io::buffered
Helps with #75080. I used the implicit link style for intrinsics, as that was what `minnumf32` and others already had.

`#![deny(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)]` in sys/hermit
Partial fix of #73904.
This encloses ``unsafe`` operations in ``unsafe fn`` in ``sys/hermit``.
Some unsafe blocks are not well documented because some system-based functions lack documents.

fix various aliasing issues in the standard library
This fixes various cases where the standard library either used raw pointers after they were already invalidated by using the original reference again, or created raw pointers for one element of a slice and used it to access neighboring elements.
Add note to process::arg[s] that args shouldn't be escaped or quoted
This came out of discussion on [forum](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/how-to-get-full-output-from-command/50626), where I recently asked a question and it turned out that the problem was redundant quotation:
```rust
Command::new("rg")
.arg("\"pattern\"") // this will look for "pattern" with quotes included
```
This is something that has bitten me few times already (in multiple languages actually), so It'd be grateful to have it in the docs, even though it's not sctrictly Rust specific problem. Other users also agreed.
This can be really annoying to debug, because in many cases (inluding mine), quotes can be legal part of the argument, so the command doesn't fail, it just behaves unexpectedly. Not everybody (including me) knows that quotes around arguments are part of the shell and not part of the called program. Coincidentally, somoene had the same problem [yesterday](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/jkxelc/going_crazy_over_running_a_curl_process_from_rust/) on reddit.
I am not a native speaker, so I welcome any corrections or better formulation, I don't expect this to be merged as is. I was also reminded that this is platform/shell specific behaviour, but I didn't find a good way to formulate that briefly, any ideas welcome.
It's also my first PR here, so I am not sure I did everything correctly, I did this just from Github UI.
