Proper Unix terminology is "exit status" (vs "wait status"). "exit
code" is imprecise on Unix and therefore unclear. (As far as I can
tell, "exit code" is correct terminology on Windows.)
This new wording is unfortunately inconsistent with the identifier
names in the Rust stdlib.
It is the identifier names that are wrong, as discussed at length in eg
https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/process/struct.ExitStatus.htmlhttps://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/os/unix/process/trait.ExitStatusExt.html
Unfortunately for API stability reasons it would be a lot of work, and
a lot of disruption, to change the names in the stdlib (eg to rename
`std::process::ExitStatus` to `std::process::ChildStatus` or
something), but we should fix the message output. Many (probably
most) readers of these messages about exit statuses will be users and
system administrators, not programmers, who won't even know that Rust
has this wrong terminology.
So I think the right thing is to fix the documentation (as I have
already done) and, now, the terminology in the implementation.
This is a user-visible change to the behaviour of all Rust programs
which run Unix subprocesses. Hopefully no-one is matching against the
exit status string, except perhaps in tests.

Add internal io::Error::new_const to avoid allocations.
This makes it possible to have a io::Error containing a message with zero allocations, and uses that everywhere to avoid the *three* allocations involved in `io::Error::new(kind, "message")`.
The function signature isn't perfect, because it needs a reference to the `&str`. So for now, this is just a `pub(crate)` function. Later, we'll be able to use `fn new_const<MSG: &'static str>(kind: ErrorKind)` to make that a bit better. (Then we'll also be able to use some ZST trickery if that would result in more efficient code.)
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/83352
Move `std::sys::unix::platform` to `std::sys::unix::ext`
This moves the operating system dependent alias `platform` (`std::os::{linux, android, ...}`) from `std::sys::unix` to `std::sys::unix::ext` (a.k.a. `std::os::unix`), removing the need for compatibility code in `unix_ext` when documenting on another platform.
This is also a step in making it possible to properly move `std::sys::unix::ext` to `std::os::unix`, as ideally `std::sys` should not depend on the rest of `std`.
Fix io::copy specialization using copy_file_range when writer was opened with O_APPEND
fixes#82410
While `sendfile()` returns `EINVAL` when the output was opened with O_APPEND, `copy_file_range()` does not and returns `EBADF` instead, which – unlike other `EBADF` causes – is not fatal for this operation since a regular `write()` will likely succeed.
We now treat `EBADF` as a non-fatal error for `copy_file_range` and fall back to a read-write copy as we already did for several other errors.
Do not attempt to unlock envlock in child process after a fork.
This implements the first two points from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/64718#issuecomment-793030479
This is a breaking change for cases where the environment is accessed in a Command::pre_exec closure. Except for single-threaded programs these uses were not correct anyway since they aren't async-signal safe.
Note that we had a ui test that explicitly tried `env::set_var` in `pre_exec`. As expected it failed with these changes when I tested locally.
Fixes to ExitStatus and its docs
* On Unix, properly display every possible wait status (and don't panic on weird values)
* In the documentation, be clear and consistent about "exit status" vs "wait status".
This is a breaking change for cases where the environment is
accessed in a Command::pre_exec closure. Except for
single-threaded programs these uses were not correct
anyway since they aren't async-signal safe.
If different unices have different bit patterns for WIFSTOPPED and
WIFCONTINUED then simply being glibc is probably not good enough for
this rather ad-hoc test to work. Do it on Linux only.

Use libc::accept4 on Android instead of raw syscall.
This PR replaces the use of a raw `accept4` syscall with `libc::accept4`. This was originally added (by me) because `std` couldn't update to the latest `libc` with `accept4` support for android. By now, libc is already on 0.2.85, so the workaround can be removed.

The use of `ExitStatus` as the Rust type name for a Unix *wait
status*, not an *exit status*, is very confusing, but sadly probably
too late to change.
This area is confusing enough in Unix already (and many programmers
are already confuxed). We can at least document it.
I chose *not* to mention the way shells like to exit with signal
numbers, thus turning signal numbers into exit statuses. This is only
relevant for Rust programs using `std::process` if they run shells.

Currently, on Nightly, this panics:
```
use std::process::ExitStatus;
use std::os::unix::process::ExitStatusExt;
fn main() {
let st = ExitStatus::from_raw(0x007f);
println!("st = {}", st);
}
```
This is because the impl of Display assumes that if .code() is None,
.signal() must be Some. That was a false assumption, although it was
true with buggy code before

unix ExitStatus: Do not treat WIFSTOPPED as WIFSIGNALED
This is not likely to have affected many people in practice, because
`Command` will never produce such a wait status (`ExitStatus`).

Add missing methods to unix ExitStatusExt
These are the methods corresponding to the remaining exit status examination macros from `wait.h`. `WCOREDUMP` isn't in SuS but is it is very standard. I have not done portability testing to see if this builds everywhere, so I may need to Do Something if it doesn't.
There is also a bugfix and doc improvement to `.signal()`, and an `.into_raw()` accessor.
This would fix#73128 and fix#73129. Please let me know if you like this direction, and if so I will open the tracking issue and so on.
If this MR goes well, I may tackle #73125 next - I have an idea for how to do it.
This is not particularly pretty but the current situation is a mess
and I don't think I'm making it significantly worse.

As discussed in #79982.
I think the "new interfaces", ie the new trait and impl, must be
insta-stable. This seems OK because we are, in fact, adding a new
restriction to the stable API.

We need to be clear that this never returns WSTOPSIG. That is, if
WIFSTOPPED, the return value is None.
