Use posix_spawn for absolute paths on macOS
Currently, on macOS, Rust never uses the fast posix_spawn path if a
directory change is requested, due to a bug in Apple's libc. However, the
bug is only triggered if the program is a relative path.
This PR makes it so that the fast path continues to work if the program
is an absolute path or a lone filename.
This was an alternative proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80537#issue-776674009, and it makes a measurable performance difference in some of my code that spawns thousands of processes.

This makes it possible to instruct libstd to never touch the signal
handler for `SIGPIPE`, which makes programs pipeable by default (e.g.
with `./your-program | head -n 1`) without `ErrorKind::BrokenPipe`
errors.
std::io: migrate ReadBuf to BorrowBuf/BorrowCursor
This PR replaces `ReadBuf` (used by the `Read::read_buf` family of methods) with `BorrowBuf` and `BorrowCursor`.
The general idea is to split `ReadBuf` because its API is large and confusing. `BorrowBuf` represents a borrowed buffer which is mostly read-only and (other than for construction) deals only with filled vs unfilled segments. a `BorrowCursor` is a mostly write-only view of the unfilled part of a `BorrowBuf` which distinguishes between initialized and uninitialized segments. For `Read::read_buf`, the caller would create a `BorrowBuf`, then pass a `BorrowCursor` to `read_buf`.
In addition to the major API split, I've made the following smaller changes:
* Removed some methods entirely from the API (mostly the functionality can be replicated with two calls rather than a single one)
* Unified naming, e.g., by replacing initialized with init and assume_init with set_init
* Added an easy way to get the number of bytes written to a cursor (`written` method)
As well as simplifying the API (IMO), this approach has the following advantages:
* Since we pass the cursor by value, we remove the 'unsoundness footgun' where a malicious `read_buf` could swap out the `ReadBuf`.
* Since `read_buf` cannot write into the filled part of the buffer, we prevent the filled part shrinking or changing which could cause underflow for the caller or unexpected behaviour.
## Outline
```rust
pub struct BorrowBuf<'a>
impl Debug for BorrowBuf<'_>
impl<'a> From<&'a mut [u8]> for BorrowBuf<'a>
impl<'a> From<&'a mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]> for BorrowBuf<'a>
impl<'a> BorrowBuf<'a> {
pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize
pub fn len(&self) -> usize
pub fn init_len(&self) -> usize
pub fn filled(&self) -> &[u8]
pub fn unfilled<'this>(&'this mut self) -> BorrowCursor<'this, 'a>
pub fn clear(&mut self) -> &mut Self
pub unsafe fn set_init(&mut self, n: usize) -> &mut Self
}
pub struct BorrowCursor<'buf, 'data>
impl<'buf, 'data> BorrowCursor<'buf, 'data> {
pub fn clone<'this>(&'this mut self) -> BorrowCursor<'this, 'data>
pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize
pub fn written(&self) -> usize
pub fn init_ref(&self) -> &[u8]
pub fn init_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [u8]
pub fn uninit_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]
pub unsafe fn as_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]
pub unsafe fn advance(&mut self, n: usize) -> &mut Self
pub fn ensure_init(&mut self) -> &mut Self
pub unsafe fn set_init(&mut self, n: usize) -> &mut Self
pub fn append(&mut self, buf: &[u8])
}
```
## TODO
* ~~Migrate non-unix libs and tests~~
* ~~Naming~~
* ~~`BorrowBuf` or `BorrowedBuf` or `SliceBuf`? (We might want an owned equivalent for the async IO traits)~~
* ~~Should we rename the `readbuf` module? We might keep the name indicate it includes both the buf and cursor variations and someday the owned version too. Or we could change it. It is not publicly exposed, so it is not that important~~.
* ~~`read_buf` method: we read into the cursor now, so the `_buf` suffix is a bit weird.~~
* ~~Documentation~~
* Tests are incomplete (I adjusted existing tests, but did not add new ones).

Optimize `Wtf8Buf::into_string` for the case where it contains UTF-8.
Add a `is_known_utf8` flag to `Wtf8Buf`, which tracks whether the
string is known to contain UTF-8. This is efficiently computed in many
common situations, such as when a `Wtf8Buf` is constructed from a `String`
or `&str`, or with `Wtf8Buf::from_wide` which is already doing UTF-16
decoding and already checking for surrogates.
This makes `OsString::into_string` O(1) rather than O(N) on Windows in
common cases.
And, it eliminates the need to scan through the string for surrogates in
`Args::next` and `Vars::next`, because the strings are already being
translated with `Wtf8Buf::from_wide`.
Many things on Windows construct `OsString`s with `Wtf8Buf::from_wide`,
such as `DirEntry::file_name` and `fs::read_link`, so with this patch,
users of those functions can subsequently call `.into_string()` without
paying for an extra scan through the string for surrogates.

Align android `sigaddset` impl with the reference impl from Bionic
In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100737 I noticed we were treating the sigset_t as an array of bytes, while referencing code from android (ad8dcd6023/libc/include/android/legacy_signal_inlines.h) which treats it as an array of unsigned long.
That said, the behavior difference is so subtle here that it's not hard to see why nobody noticed. This fixes the implementation to be equivalent to the one in bionic.
Use pointer `is_aligned*` methods
This PR replaces some manual alignment checks with calls to `pointer::{is_aligned, is_aligned_to}` and removes a useless pointer cast.

_split off from #100746_
Replace most uses of `pointer::offset` with `add` and `sub`
As PR title says, it replaces `pointer::offset` in compiler and standard library with `pointer::add` and `pointer::sub`. This generally makes code cleaner, easier to grasp and removes (or, well, hides) integer casts.
This is generally trivially correct, `.offset(-constant)` is just `.sub(constant)`, `.offset(usized as isize)` is just `.add(usized)`, etc. However in some cases we need to be careful with signs of things.

add miri-test-libstd support to libstd
- The first commit mirrors what we already have in liballoc.
- The second commit adds some regression tests that only really make sense to be run in Miri, since they rely on Miri's extra checks to detect anything.
- The third commit makes the MPSC tests work in reasonable time in Miri by reducing iteration counts.
- The fourth commit silences some warnings due to code being disabled with `cfg(miri)`
Windows: Load synch functions together
Attempt to load all the required sync functions and fail if any one of them fails.
This fixes a FIXME by going back to optional loading of `WakeByAddressSingle`.
Also reintroduces a macro for optional loading of functions but keeps it separate from the fallback macro rather than having that do two different jobs.

Expose `Utf8Lossy` as `Utf8Chunks`
This PR changes the feature for `Utf8Lossy` from `str_internals` to `utf8_lossy` and improves the API. This is done to eventually expose the API as stable.
Proposal: rust-lang/libs-team#54
Tracking Issue: #99543
Avoid zeroing a 1kb stack buffer on every call to `std::sys::windows::fill_utf16_buf`
I've also tried to be slightly more careful about integer overflows, although in practice this is likely still not handled ideally.

Fix HorizonOS regression in FileTimes

promote debug_assert to assert when possible and useful
This PR fixed a very old issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/94705 to clarify and improve the POSIX error checking, and some of the checks are skipped because can have no benefit, but I'm sure that this can open some interesting discussion.

linux: Use `pthread_setname_np` instead of `prctl`
This function is available on Linux since glibc 2.12, musl 1.1.16, and
uClibc 1.0.20. The main advantage over `prctl` is that it properly
represents the pointer argument, rather than a multi-purpose `long`,
so we're better representing strict provenance (#95496).
