These methods enable socket reads without side-effects. That is,
repeated calls to peek() return identical data. This is accomplished
by providing the POSIX flag MSG_PEEK to the underlying socket read
operations.
This also moves the current implementation of recv_from out of the
platform-independent sys_common and into respective sys/windows and
sys/unix implementations. This allows for more platform-dependent
implementations.
This commit adds a new method to the `Child` type in the `std::process` module
called `try_wait`. This method is the same as `wait` except that it will not
block the calling thread and instead only attempt to collect the exit status. On
Unix this means that we call `waitpid` with the `WNOHANG` flag and on Windows it
just means that we pass a 0 timeout to `WaitForSingleObject`.
Currently it's possible to build this method out of tree, but it's unfortunately
tricky to do so. Specifically on Unix you essentially lose ownership of the pid
for the process once a call to `waitpid` has succeeded. Although `Child` tracks
this state internally to be resilient to multiple calls to `wait` or a `kill`
after a successful wait, if the child is waited on externally then the state
inside of `Child` is not updated. This means that external implementations of
this method must be extra careful to essentially not use a `Child`'s methods
after a call to `waitpid` has succeeded (even in a nonblocking fashion).
By adding this functionality to the standard library it should help canonicalize
these external implementations and ensure they can continue to robustly reuse
the `Child` type from the standard library without worrying about pid ownership.
Turns out that even though all these functions take a `size_t` they don't
actually work that well with anything larger than the maximum value of
`ssize_t`, the return value. Furthermore it looks like OSX rejects any
read/write requests larger than `INT_MAX - 1`. Handle all these cases by just
clamping the maximum size of a read/write on Unix to a platform-specific value.

Removes magenta build warning.
Small bug fix to remove an unused type in the magenta process code that causes build failures for magenta's rustc.

Fuchsia support for std::process via liblaunchpad.
Now we can launch processes on Fuchsia via the Rust standard library! ... Mostly.
Right now, ~5% of the time, reading the stdout/stderr off the pipes will fail. Some Magenta kernel people think it's probably a bug in Magenta's pipes. I wrote a unit test that demonstrates the issue in C, which I was told will expedite a fix. https://fuchsia-review.googlesource.com/#/c/15628/
Hopefully this can get merged once the issue is fixed :)

On unix like systems, the underlying file corresponding to any given path may
change at any time. This function makes it possible to set the permissions of
the a file corresponding to a `File` object even if its path changes.
The mx_cprng_draw syscall has changed signature to separate the status
and size return values, rather than multiplexing them into a single
value with errors interpreted as a negative value. This patch tracks
that change.
The DirEntryExt::ino() implementation was omitted from the first
iteration of this patch, because a dependency needed to be
configured. The fix is straightforward enough.
It is good practice to implement Debug for public types, and
indicating what directory you're reading seems useful.

Implement `read_offset` and `write_offset`
These functions allow to read from and write to a file from multiple
threads without changing the per-file cursor, avoiding the race between
the seek and the read.
These functions allow to read from and write to a file in one atomic
action from multiple threads, avoiding the race between the seek and the
read.
The functions are named `{read,write}_at` on non-Windows (which don't
change the file cursor), and `seek_{read,write}` on Windows (which
change the file cursor).
