Call the OS function to set the main thread's name on program init
Normally, `Thread::spawn` takes care of setting the thread's name, if
one was provided, but since the main thread wasn't created by calling
`Thread::spawn`, we need to call that function in `std::rt::init`.
This is mainly useful for system tools like debuggers and profilers
which might show the thread name to a user. Prior to these changes, gdb
and WinDbg would show all thread names except the main thread's name to
a user. I've validated that this patch resolves the issue for both
debuggers.
Lazily allocate and initialize pthread locks.
Lazily allocate and initialize pthread locks.
This allows {Mutex, Condvar, RwLock}::new() to be const, while still using the platform's native locks for features like priority inheritance and debug tooling. E.g. on macOS, we cannot directly use the (private) APIs that pthread's locks are implemented with, making it impossible for us to use anything other than pthread while still preserving priority inheritance, etc.
This PR doesn't yet make the public APIs const. That's for a separate PR with an FCP.
Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93740
The oldest occurence is from 9e224c2bf1,
which is from the pre-1.0 days. In the years since then, std::sys still
hasn't been exported, and the last attempt was met with strong criticism:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97151
Thus, removing the "yet" part makes a lot of sense.

I wrote `state` where I should've used `s`.
This removes the unnecessary `s` variable to prevent that mistake.
Fortunately, this typo didn't affect the correctness of the lock, as the
second half of the condition (!has_writers_waiting) is enough for
correctness, which explains why this mistake didn't show up during
testing.
From reading the source code, it appears like the desired semantic of
std::unix::rand is to always provide some bytes and never block. For
that reason GRND_NONBLOCK is checked before calling getrandom(0), so
that getrandom(0) won't block. If it would block, then the function
falls back to using /dev/urandom, which for the time being doesn't
block. There are some drawbacks to using /dev/urandom, however, and so
getrandom(GRND_INSECURE) was created as a replacement for this exact
circumstance.
getrandom(GRND_INSECURE) is the same as /dev/urandom, except:
- It won't leave a warning in dmesg if used at early boot time, which is
a common occurance (and the reason why I found this issue);
- It won't introduce a tiny delay at early boot on newer kernels when
/dev/urandom tries to opportunistically create jitter entropy;
- It only requires 1 syscall, rather than 3.
Other than that, it returns the same "quality" of randomness as
/dev/urandom, and never blocks.
It's only available on kernels ≥5.6, so we try to use it, cache the
result of that attempt, and fall back to to the previous code if it
didn't work.
In the previous implementation, if the standard streams were open,
but the RLIMIT_NOFILE value was below three, the poll would fail
with EINVAL:
> ERRORS: EINVAL The nfds value exceeds the RLIMIT_NOFILE value.
Switch to the existing fcntl based implementation to avoid the issue.
std: directly use pthread in UNIX parker implementation
`Mutex` and `Condvar` are being replaced by more efficient implementations, which need thread parking themselves (see #93740). Therefore we should use the `pthread` synchronization primitives directly. Also, we can avoid allocating the mutex and condition variable because the `Parker` struct is being placed in an `Arc` anyways.
This basically is just a copy of the current `Mutex` and `Condvar` code, which will however be removed (again, see #93740). An alternative implementation could be to use dedicated private `OsMutex` and `OsCondvar` types, but all the other platforms supported by std actually have their own thread parking primitives.
I used `Pin` to guarantee a stable address for the `Parker` struct, while the current implementation does not, rather using extra unsafe declaration. Since the thread struct is shared anyways, I assumed this would not add too much clutter while being clearer.

[fuchsia] Add implementation for `current_exe`
This implementation returns a best attempt at the current exe path. On
fuchsia, fdio will always use `argv[0]` as the process name and if it is
not set then an error will be returned. Because this is not guaranteed
to be the case, this implementation returns an error if `argv` does not
contain any elements.
remove_dir_all_recursive: treat ELOOP the same as ENOTDIR
On older Linux kernels (I tested on 4.4, corresponding to Ubuntu 16.04), opening a symlink using `O_DIRECTORY | O_NOFOLLOW` returns `ELOOP` instead of `ENOTDIR`. We should handle it the same, since a symlink is still not a directory and needs to be `unlink`ed.

Use a single ReentrantMutex implementation on all platforms.
This replaces all platform specific ReentrantMutex implementations by the one I added in #95727 for Linux, since that one does not depend on any platform specific details.
