Replace 'NULL' with 'null'
This replaces occurrences of "NULL" with "null" in docs, comments, and compiler error/lint messages. This is for the sake of consistency, as the lowercase "null" is already the dominant form in Rust. The all-caps NULL looks like the C macro (or SQL keyword), which seems out of place in a Rust context, given that NULL does not exist in the Rust language or standard library (instead having [`ptr::null()`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/ptr/fn.null.html)).
Be stricter about rejecting LLVM reserved registers in asm!
LLVM will silently produce incorrect code if these registers are used as operands.

Add std::os::unix::fs::chroot to change the root directory of the current process
This is a straightforward wrapper that uses the existing helpers for C
string handling and errno handling.
Having this available is convenient for UNIX utility programs written in
Rust, and avoids having to call the unsafe `libc::chroot` directly and
handle errors manually, in a program that may otherwise be entirely safe
code.
Reuse `sys::unix::cmath` on other platforms
Reuse `sys::unix::cmath` on all non-`windows` platforms.
`unix` is chosen as the canonical location instead of `unsupported` or `common` because `unsupported` doesn't make sense semantically and `common` is reserved for code that is supported on all platforms. Also `unix` is already the home of some non-`windows` code that is technically not exclusive to `unix` like `unix::path`.

Link between std::env::{var, var_os} and std::env::{vars, vars_os}
In #84551 I linked between `std::env::{args, args_os}` and this PR does the same but for `std::env::{var, var_os}` and `std::env::{vars, vars_os}`. Now all of `std::env::{var, var_os, vars, vars_os, args, args_os}` should each mention their `_os` or non-`_os` equivalent in the docs so that you can easily navigate between them.
Point out that behavior might be switched on 2015 and 2018 too one day
Reword documentation to make it clear that behaviour can be switched on older editions too, one day in the future. It doesn't *have* to be switched, but I think it's good to have it as an option and re-evaluate it a few months/years down the line when e.g. the crates that showed up in crater were broken by different changes in the language already.

Remove `DropGuard` in `sys::windows::process` and use `StaticMutex` instead
`StaticMutex` is a mutex that when locked provides a guard that unlocks the mutex again when dropped, thus provides the exact same functionality as `DropGuard`. `StaticMutex` is used in more places, and is thus preferred over an ad-hoc construct like `DropGuard`.

Simplify `Mutex::into_inner`
Thanks to #77147, `Mutex` do not implement `Drop` directly, so the old unsafe implementation of `into_inner` is not relevant anymore.
Reuse modules on `hermit`
Reuse the following modules on `hermit`:
- `unix::path` (contents identical)
- `unsupported::io` (contents identical)
- `unsupported::thread_local_key` (contents functionally identical, only changes are the panic error messages)

Unify the docs of std::env::{args_os, args} more
I noticed that `args_os` was missing some information and I thought it should mention `args` for when you want more safety just like how `args` mentions `args_os` if you don't want it to panic on invalid Unicode.
Inline most raw socket, fd and handle conversions
Now that file descriptor types on Unix have niches, it is advantageous for user libraries which provide file descriptor wrappers (e.g. `Socket` from socket2) to store a `File` internally instead of a `RawFd`, so that the niche can be taken advantage of. However, doing so will currently result in worse performance as `IntoRawFd`, `FromRawFd` and `AsRawFd` are not inlined. This change adds `#[inline]` to those methods on std types that wrap file descriptors, handles or sockets.
