On Windows, AUX is the auxiliary device, usually pointing to COM1.
Therefore it is forbidden to create a file named aux.c. To make it a bit
easier for Windows users to check out our source code, rename this file
to auxv.c.

Apart from the fact that nothing should have OPEN_MAX as a limit (as opposed
to RLIMIT_NOFILE from getrlimit() or _SC_OPEN_MAX from sysconf()), POSIX
does not require us to check this. POSIX does have a requirement on the
application that maxfds not exceed {OPEN_MAX}, but does not require the
implementation to check it ("may fail").

Append '__' prefix to the tag of struct oflock, and put it under BSD
namespace. Structure is needed both by libc and kernel, thus cannot be
hidden under #ifdef _KERNEL.
Move a set of non-standard F_* and O_* constants into BSD namespace.
SUSv4 explicitely allows implemenation to pollute F_* and O_* names
after fcntl.h is included, but it costs us nothing to adhere
to the specification if exact POSIX compliance level is requested by
user code.
Change some spaces after #define to tabs.

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
netgroup.

(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.
