Truncate thread names on Linux and Apple targets
These targets have system limits on the thread names, 16 and 64 bytes
respectively, and `pthread_setname_np` returns an error if the name is
longer. However, we're not in a context that can propagate errors when
we call this, and we used to implicitly truncate on Linux with `prctl`,
so now we manually truncate these names ahead of time.

Don't link to `libresolv` in libstd on Darwin
Currently we link `libresolv` into every Rust program on apple targets despite never using it (as of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/44965). I had thought we needed this for `getaddrinfo` or something, but we do not / cannot safely use it.
I'd like to fix this for `libiconv` too (the other library we pull in. that's harder since it's coming in through `libc`, which is https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/pull/2944)).
---
This may warrant release notes. I'm not sure but I've added the flag regardless -- It's a change to the list of dylibs every Rust program pulls in, so it's worth mentioning.
It's pretty unlikely anybody was relying on this being pulled in, and `std` does not guarantee that it will link (and thus transitively provide access to) any particular system library -- anybody relying on that behavior would already be broken when dynamically linking std. That is, there's an outside chance something will fail to link on macOS and iOS because it was accidentally relying on our unnecessary dependency.
(If that *does* happen, that project could be easily fixed by linking libresolv explicitly on those platforms, probably via `#[link(name = "resolv")] extern {}`,` -Crustc-link-lib=resolv`, `println!("cargo:rustc-link-lib=resolv")`, or one of several places in `.config/cargo.toml`)
---
I'm also going to preemptively add the nomination for discussing this in the libs meeting. Basically: Do we care about programs that assume we will bring libraries in that we do not use. `libresolv` and `libiconv` on macOS/iOS are in this camp (`libresolv` because we used to use it, and `libiconv` because the `libc` crate was unintentionally(?) pulling it in to every Rust program).
I'd like to remove them both, but this may cause link issues programs that are relying on `std` to depend on them transitively. (Relying on std for this does not work in all build configurations, so this seems very fragile, and like a use case we should not support).
More generally, IMO we should not guarantee the specific set of system-provided libraries we use (beyond what is implied by an OS version requirement), which means we'd be free to remove this cruft.
Eliminate 280-byte memset from ReadDir iterator
This guy:
1536ab1b38/library/std/src/sys/unix/fs.rs (L589)
It turns out `libc::dirent64` is quite big—https://docs.rs/libc/0.2.135/libc/struct.dirent64.html. In #103135 this memset accounted for 0.9% of the runtime of iterating a big directory.
Almost none of the big zeroed value is ever used. We memcpy a tiny prefix (19 bytes) into it, and then read just 9 bytes (`d_ino` and `d_type`) back out. We can read exactly those 9 bytes we need directly from the original entry_ptr instead.
## History
This code got added in #93459 and tweaked in #94272 and #94750.
Prior to #93459, there was no memset but a full 280 bytes were being copied from the entry_ptr.
<table><tr><td>copy 280 bytes</td></tr></table>
This was not legal because not all of those bytes might be initialized, or even allocated, depending on the length of the directory entry's name, leading to a segfault. That PR fixed the segfault by creating a new zeroed dirent64 and copying just the guaranteed initialized prefix into it.
<table><tr><td>memset 280 bytes</td><td>copy 19 bytes</td></tr></table>
However this was still buggy because it used `addr_of!((*entry_ptr).d_name)`, which is considered UB by Miri in the case that the full extent of entry_ptr is not in bounds of the same allocation. (Arguably this shouldn't be a requirement, but here we are.)
The UB got fixed by #94272 by replacing `addr_of` with some pointer manipulation based on `offset_from`, but still fundamentally the same operation.
<table><tr><td>memset 280 bytes</td><td>copy 19 bytes</td></tr></table>
Then #94750 noticed that only 9 of those 19 bytes were even being used, so we could pick out only those 9 to put in the ReadDir value.
<table><tr><td>memset 280 bytes</td><td>copy 19 bytes</td><td>copy 9 bytes</td></tr></table>
After my PR we just grab the 9 needed bytes directly from entry_ptr.
<table><tr><td>copy 9 bytes</td></tr></table>
The resulting code is more complex but I believe still worthwhile to land for the following reason. This is an extremely straightforward thing to accomplish in C and clearly libc assumes that; literally just `entry_ptr->d_name`. The extra work in comparison to accomplish it in Rust is not an example of any actual safety being provided by Rust. I believe it's useful to have uncovered that and think about what could be done in the standard library or language to support this obvious operation better.

Previously, the signal mask is always reset when a child process is
started. This breaks tools like `nohup` which expect `SIGHUP` to be
blocked.
With this change, the default behavior changes to inherit the signal mask.
This also changes the signal disposition for `SIGPIPE` to only be
changed if the `#[unix_sigpipe]` attribute isn't set.
Use semaphores for thread parking on Apple platforms
Currently we use a mutex-condvar pair for thread parking on Apple systems. Unfortunately, `pthread_cond_timedwait` uses the real-time clock for measuring time, which causes problems when the system time changes. The parking implementation in this PR uses a semaphore instead, which measures monotonic time by default, avoiding these issues. As a further benefit, this has the potential to improve performance a bit, since `unpark` does not need to wait for a lock to be released.
Since the Mach semaphores are poorly documented (I could not find availability or stability guarantees for instance), this uses a [dispatch semaphore](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/dispatch/dispatch_semaphore?language=objc) instead. While it adds a layer of indirection (it uses Mach semaphores internally), the overhead is probably negligible.
Tested on macOS 12.5.

The UNIX and WASI implementations use `isatty`. The Windows
implementation uses the same logic the `atty` crate uses, including the
hack needed to detect msys terminals.
Implement this trait for `File` and for `Stdin`/`Stdout`/`Stderr` and
their locked counterparts on all platforms. On UNIX and WASI, implement
it for `BorrowedFd`/`OwnedFd`. On Windows, implement it for
`BorrowedHandle`/`OwnedHandle`.

sync thread_local key conditions exactly with what the macro uses
This makes the `cfg` in `mod.rs` syntactically the same as those in `local.rs`.
I don't think this should actually change anything, but seems better to be consistent?
I looked into this due to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/102549, but this PR would make it *less* likely that `__OsLocalKeyInner` is going to get provided, so this cannot help with that issue.

More dupe word typos
I only picked those changes (from the regex search) that I am pretty certain doesn't change meaning and is just a typo fix. Do correct me if any fix is undesirable and I can revert those. Thanks.
impl AsFd and AsRawFd for io::{Stdin, Stdout, Stderr}, not the sys versions
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100892 implemented AsFd for the
sys versions, rather than for the public types. Change the
implementations to apply to the public types.
openbsd: don't reallocate a guard page on the stack.
the kernel currently enforce that a stack is immutable. calling mmap(2) or mprotect(2) to change it will result in EPERM, which generate a panic!().
so just do like for Linux, and trust the kernel to do the right thing.
Optimize TLS on Windows
This implements the suggestion in the current TLS code to embed the linked list of destructors in the `StaticKey` structure to save allocations. Additionally, locking is avoided when no destructor needs to be run. By using one Windows-provided `Once` per key instead of a global lock, locking is more finely-grained (this unblocks #100579).
fs::get_path solarish version.
similar to linux, albeit there is no /proc/self notion on solaris
based system thus flattening the difference for simplification sake.

Reduce CString allocations in std as much as possible
Currently, every operation involving paths in `fs` allocates memory to hold the path before sending it through the syscall. This PR instead uses a stack allocation (chosen size is somewhat arbitrary) when the path is short before falling back to heap allocations for long paths.
Benchmarks show that the stack allocation is ~2x faster for short paths:
```
test sys::unix::fd::tests::bench_heap_path_alloc ... bench: 34 ns/iter (+/- 2)
test sys::unix::fd::tests::bench_stack_path_alloc ... bench: 15 ns/iter (+/- 1)
```
For long paths, I couldn't find any measurable difference.
---
I'd be surprised if I was the first to think of this, so I didn't fully flush out the PR. If this change is desirable, I'll make use of `run_with_cstr` across all platforms in every fs method (currently just unix open for testing). I also added an `impl From<FromBytesWithNulError>` which is presumably a no-no (or at least needs to be done in another PR).

Also see https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1655 with a bunch of discussion where I'm doing something similar.
Recover error strings on Unix from_lossy_utf8
Some language settings can result in unreliable UTF-8 being produced.
This can result in failing to emit the error string, panicking instead.
from_lossy_utf8 allows us to assume these strings usually will be fine.
This fixes rust-lang#99535.
Remove use of `io::ErrorKind::Other` in std
The documentation states that this `ErrorKind` is not used by the standard library. Instead, `io::ErrorKind::Uncategorized` should be used.
The two instances are in the unstable API [linux_pidfd](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82971).
std: use `sync::RwLock` for internal statics
Since `sync::RwLock` is now `const`-constructible, it can be used for internal statics, removing the need for `sys_common::StaticRwLock`. This adds some extra allocations on platforms which need to box their locks (currently SGX and some UNIX), but these will become unnecessary with the lock improvements tracked in #93740.
