Pedro F. Giffuni b6413b6db8 POSIX compliance improvements in the pthread(3) functions.
This basically adds makes use of the C99 restrict keyword, and also
adds some 'const's to four threading functions: pthread_mutexattr_gettype(),
pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling(), pthread_mutexattr_getprotocol(), and
pthread_mutex_getprioceiling. The changes are in accordance to POSIX/SUSv4-2018.
