Ensure proper handshake to transfer sigfastblock(2) blocking word
ownership from rtld to libthr.
Unfortunately sigfastblock(2) is not enough to stop intercepting
signals in libthr, because critical sections must ensure more than
just signal blocking.

A new syscall sigfastblock(2) is added which registers a uint32_t
variable as containing the count of blocks for signal delivery. Its
content is read by kernel on each syscall entry and on AST processing,
non-zero count of blocks is interpreted same as the signal mask
blocking all signals.
The biggest downside of the feature that I see is that memory
corruption that affects the registered fast sigblock location, would
cause quite strange application misbehavior. For instance, the process
would be immune to ^C (but killable by SIGKILL).
With consumers (rtld and libthr added), benchmarks do not show a
slow-down of the syscalls in micro-measurements, and macro benchmarks
like buildworld do not demonstrate a difference. Part of the reason is
that buildworld time is dominated by compiler, and clang already links
to libthr. On the other hand, small utilities typically used by shell
scripts have the total number of syscalls cut by half.
The syscall is not exported from the stable libc version namespace on
purpose. It is intended to be used only by our C runtime
implementation internals.

O_SEARCH is defined by POSIX [0] to open a directory for searching, skipping
permissions checks on the directory itself after the initial open(). This is
close to the semantics we've historically applied for O_EXEC on a directory,
which is UB according to POSIX. Conveniently, O_SEARCH on a file is also
explicitly undefined behavior according to POSIX, so O_EXEC would be a fine
choice. The spec goes on to state that O_SEARCH and O_EXEC need not be
distinct values, but they're not defined to be the same value.
This was pointed out as an incompatibility with other systems that had made
its way into libarchive, which had assumed that O_EXEC was an alias for
O_SEARCH.
This defines compatibility O_SEARCH/FSEARCH (equivalent to O_EXEC and FEXEC
respectively) and expands our UB for O_EXEC on a directory. O_EXEC on a
directory is checked in vn_open_vnode already, so for completeness we add a
NOEXECCHECK when O_SEARCH has been specified on the top-level fd and do not
re-check that when descending in namei.

rand(3)'s standard C API is extremely limiting, but we can do better
than the historical 32-bit state Park-Miller LCG we've shipped since
2001: r73156.
The justification provided at the time for not using random(3) was that
rand_r(3) could not be made to use the same algorithm. That is still
true. However, the irrelevance of rand_r(3) is increasingly obvious.
Since that time, POSIX has marked the interface obsolescent. rand_r(3)
never became part of the standard C library. If not for API
compatibility reasons, I would just remove rand_r(3) entirely.
So, I do not believe it is a problem for rand_r(3) and rand(3) to
diverge.
The 12 ABI is maintained with compatibility definitions, but this
revision does subtly change the API of rand(3). The sequences of
pseudorandom numbers produced in programs built against new versions of
libc will differ from programs built against prior versions of libc.

I sent out an e-mail on 2020/01/21 with a plan to do this to Kyle, Rob, and
Wes; all parties have responded in the affirmative that it's OK to drop it
from these files.
The existing APIs simply pass the implicit global state to the _r variants.
No functional change.
Note that these routines are not exported from libc and are not intended to be
exported. If someone wished to export them from libc (which I would
discourage), they should first be modified to match the inconsistent parameter
type / order of the glibc public interfaces of the same names.
I know Ravi will ask, so: the eventual goal of this series is to replace
rand(3) with the implementation from random(3) (D23290). However, I'd like to
wait a bit longer on that one to see if more feedback emerges.

As part of the FreeBSD powerpc* flag day (1300070), the auxv numbering was
changed to match every other platform.
See D20799 for more details on that change.
While the kernel and rtld were adapted, libc was not, so old dynamic
binaries broke for reasons other than the ABI change on powerpc64.
Since it's possible to support nearly everything regarding old binaries by
adding compatibility code to libc (as besides rtld, it is the main point
where auxv is digested), we might as well provide compatibility code.
The only unhandled case remaining should be "new format libraries that call
elf_aux_info() which are dynamically linked to by old-format binaries",
which should be quite rare.

For 512 bytes or more, the copy is done in 3 phases:
Phase 1: copy from the src buffer until it's aligned at a 16-byte boundary
Phase 2: copy as many aligned 64-byte blocks from the src buffer as possible
Phase 3: copy the remaining data, if any
In phase 2, this code uses VSX instructions when available. Otherwise,
it uses ldx/stdx.
