9a27a4f0fe Add a new libc function, strnstr(3), which allows one to limit the
number of characters that are searched.  This is especially useful
with file operations and non-NUL terminated strings.

fb673f2a68 Fixed syntax errors in synopsis. The restrict keyword doesn't exist yet.
The corresponding bugs in <wchar.h> have no effect because the function
prototypes there don't have args so the __restrict "keyword" is
misinterpreted as an arg.

40b3f0a01b o Various mdoc fixes.
o Replace strncpy examples with less confusing ones from
  OpenBSD.  These examples give more detail and also suggest
  using strlcpy(3).

ff58456baf Avoid the potentially confusing term "a null pointer" and say "the NULL

pages use the term "null-terminated string" (which is permissable).  Moreover,
this also makes these two manpages more consistent with the other string/*.3
manpages.

fd943454de Handle machine-dependent (m-d) (string) sources more automatically.
The names of m-d variants are now added (manually) to MDSRCS instead
of to SRCS, and the names of all machine-independent (m-i) variants
that can reasonably be replaced by an m-d variant are now added
(manually) to MISRCS instead of to SRCS, so that a simple substitution
can be used to discard the unused m-i variants.  MISRCS is potentially
all m-i sources, but the substitution is too simple to be fast, so
MISRCS should be kept reasonably small.

Do the substitution.

54b7f88a16 Don't build swab.o here. It gets built in libc/i386/string. Previously
the copy built from here was overwritten by the other copy and the other
copy was put in library-building command lines twice.  ld now objects to
duplicated modules.

7fa1ec8f19 Use latest Arthur Olson timezone code rather than that supplied with
4.4.  The code is almost identical to the 4.4 versions, but this organization
should make it easier to merge new versions in the future.

ed0e48f6c0 Fix printing of weird errno's: negative values were printed as large
unsigned's; null termination was only guaranteed for the first call.

Fix lint: don't declare externs internally; they were both out of date.

e017c781ca First crack at making libc work with the new make macros. It compiles on
my machine, and a simple static (genassym) and shared (sysctl) executable
both work.  Still to be done: RPCand YP merge.
