This method is more sandbox-friendly and also should be faster as only
one syscall is needed instead of three.
In case of an error fall back to the old method.

The function isascii_l() is not in POSIX even though isascii() is,
probably because isascii() is marked as obsolete. The other functions,
like digittoint_l() and ishexnumber_l(), are FreeBSD-specific just like
their non-_l versions.
clock_gettime(2) functions if supported. The speedup seen in
microbenchmarks is in range 4x-7x depending on the hardware.
Only amd64 and i386 architectures are supported. Libc uses rdtsc and
kernel data to calculate current time, if enabled by kernel.
Hopefully, this code is going to migrate into vdso in some future.

First, extend the changes in r230782 to better handle the common case
of using NOREUSE with sequential reads. A NOREUSE file descriptor
will now track the last implicit DONTNEED request it made as a result
of a NOREUSE read. If a subsequent NOREUSE read is adjacent to the
previous range, it will apply the DONTNEED request to the entire range
of both the previous read and the current read. The effect is that
each read of a file accessed sequentially will apply the DONTNEED
request to the entire range that has been read. This allows NOREUSE
to properly handle misaligned reads by flushing each buffer to cache
once it has been completely read.
Second, apply the same changes made to read(2) by r230782 and this
change to writes. This provides much better performance in the
sequential write case as it allows writes to still be clustered. It
also provides much better performance for misaligned writes. It does
mean that NOREUSE will be generally ineffective for non-sequential
writes as the current implementation relies on a future NOREUSE
write's implicit DONTNEED request to flush the dirty buffer from the
current write.

string buffer for each linelist l_line into one large string. Since
linelists parsed out during the previous passes store the pointers to
previously allocated l_lines, the reallocation caused undefined
behaviour on accessing the buffers, and quite deterministic fault on
freeing them (in mountd(8) startup).
This fixes reading of netgroup(5) file which contains more then one

(Resolved state) recommend this way for the current standard (called
"earlier" in the text)
"However, earlier versions of this standard did not require this, and the
same example had to be written as:
// buf was obtained by malloc(buflen)
ret = write(fd, buf, buflen);
if (ret < 0) {
int save = errno;
free(buf);
errno = save;
return ret;
}
"
from feedback I have for previous commit it seems that many people prefer
to avoid mass code change needed for current standard compliance
and prefer to track unpublished standard instead, which requires now
that free() itself must save errno, not its usage code.
So, I back out "save errno across free()" part of previous commit,
and will fill PR for changing free() isntead.
2) Remove now unused serrno.

"The setting of errno after a successful call to a function is
unspecified unless the description of that function specifies that
errno shall not be modified."
However, free() in IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 does not mention its interaction
with errno, so MAY modify it after successful call
(it depends on particular free() implementation, OS-specific, etc.).
So, save errno across free() calls to make code portable and
POSIX-conformant.
2) Remove unused serrno assignment.

The stat structures returned on pipes seems to contain all the
information required by POSIX. Especially the wording "and thus to a
pipe" makes little sense, because it seems to imply a certain
relationship between sockets and pipes that simply isn't there.
