While here, change how we check if the current line is the last one.
Before, we just checked if there were more files after the current one.
Now, we check the actual content of those files: they files may not have
a line at all. This matches the definition of the "last line" by the
Open Group.
The new behavior is closer to GNU sed.

In BSD, fgetln() available in libc but in Illumos the Solaris port had to
include it internally. It also seems to have caused problems [1].
Aid portability by using getline() instead.

When creating a backup file, sed renamed the original before renaming the
changed copy into place, leading to a short time when no file with the
original name was present (usually only visible on SMP systems). Try
creating the backup file using a hard link instead, avoiding this problem.
If creating the hard link fails for any reason, fall back to the old rename
method.
When not creating a backup file, sed already renamed the changed copy onto
the original. This remains unchanged.
I am not adding the suppression of redundant fchown/fchmod to this commit,
because FreeBSD appears to check this in the kernel (for msdosfs at least).

1) Add missing parens around assignment that is compared to zero.
2) Make some variables that only take non-negative values unsigned.
3) Some casts/type changes to fix other constness warnings.
4) Make one variable a const char *.
5) Make sure termwidth is positive, it doesn't make sense for it to be negative.

each file independently from other files. The new semantics are
desired in the most of practical cases, e.g.: delete lines 5-9
from each file.
Keep the previous semantics of -i under a new option, -I, which
uses a single continuous address space covering all files to edit
in-place -- they are too cool to just drop them.
Add regression tests for -i and -I.

When sed is asked to inline-edit files, it forgets to close the temporary
file and runs out of descriptors for long command lines (assuming you reset
kern.maxfilesperproc to something sane that's less than the number of files
passed to sed).
need to know. Instead, check when we are trying to match a "$" address.
This does not change the way sed processes regular files, but makes it behave
more sensibly when used interactively.

instead add the newline when the pattern space is printed. Make the `G' and
`H' commands add a newline to the space before the data, remove bogus
addition of newline from `x' command.

- original version of code worked incorrectly when more than one
input files were specified - it was moving the last line from the 1st file
to be the first line of the 2nd, last line of the 2nd to be the first
line of the 3rd and so on;
- use mmap()->write() to create temporary file instead of
malloc()->read()->write(), which was not only slower, but also did not
bother to free allocated memory once backup file was created, potentially
leading to memory exhausting when regex is applied to a big file or a large
number of small ones.
mktemp(3). It would be amazingly unlikely, but the former method
could result in a symlink attack. A better solution would use
${TMPDIR}, though.
o Make sed not overwrite old backup files with no warning.
Perl for such things. The key difference to Perl is that a backup extension
*MUST* be specified, because on one hand it isn't recommended to have options
which optionally take a parameter, and on the other hand, it'd be slightly
unpleasent to implement proper handling for that.
The difference between this and the version posted to developers@ is that it
does handle multiple files in argv after the getopt(3) handling "correctly",
in that the inplace editing-specific code has been moved out to a function,
and that function is used beyond the first file in our linked list.
This option has been documented as FreeBSD-specific in the manpage.
