remove mips setjmp/longjmp code to save/restore fenv
nothing in the standard requires or even allows the fenv state to be
restored by longjmp. restoring the exception flags is not such a big
deal since it's probably valid to clobber them completely, but
restoring the rounding mode yields an observable side effect not
sanctioned by ISO C. saving/restoring it also wastes a few cycles and
16 bytes of code.
as for historical behavior, reportedly SGI IRIX did save/restore fenv,
and this is where glibc and uClibc got the behavior from. a few other
systems save/restore it too (on archs other than mips), even though
this is apparently wrong. further details are documented here:
http://www-personal.umich.edu/~williams/archive/computation/setjmp-fpmode.html
as musl aims for standards conformance rather than coddling historical
programs expecting non-conforming behavior, and as it's unlikely that
any historical programs actually depend on the incorrect behavior

feature test macros: make _GNU_SOURCE enable everything

purely additive feature test macro; it actually caused some features
to be suppressed.
most of the changes made by this patch actually bring musl in closer
alignment with the glibc behavior for _GNU_SOURCE. the only exceptions
are the added visibility of functions like strlcpy which were BSD-only
due to being disliked/rejected by glibc maintainers. here, I feel the
consistency of having _GNU_SOURCE mean "everything", and especially
the property of it being purely additive, are more valuable than
hiding functions which glibc does not have.

fix a couple issues in the inttypes.h PRI/SCN macros
most importantly, the format/scan macros for the [u]int_fast16_t and
[u]int_fast32_t types were defined incorrectly assuming these types
would match the native word/pointer size. this is incorrect on any
64-bit system; the "fast" types for 16- and 32-bit integers are simply
int.
another issue which was "only a warning" (despite being UB) is that
the choice of "l" versus "ll" was incorrect for 64-bit types on 64-bit
machines. while it would "work" to always use "long long" for 64-bit
types, we use "long" on 64-bit machines to match what glibc does and
what the ABI documents recommend. the macro definitions were probably
right in very old versions of musl, but became wrong when we aligned
most closely with the 'standard' ABI. checking UINTPTR_MAX is an easy
way to get the system wordsize without pulling in new headers.
finally, the useless __PRIPTR macro to allow the underlying type of
[u]intptr_t to vary has been removed. we are using "long" on all
targets, and thankfully this matches what glibc does, so I do not
envision ever needing to change it. thus, the "l" has just been
incorporated directly in the strings.

debloat src/thread tree but putting lots of junk in one file
POSIX includes mostly-useless attribute-get functions for each
attribute-set function, presumably out of some object-oriented
dogmatism. the get functions are not useful with the simple idiomatic
usage of attributes. there are of course possible valid uses of them
(like writing wrappers for pthread init functions that perform special
actions on the presence of certain attributes), but considering how
tiny these functions are anyway, little is lost by putting them all in
one file, and some build-time cost and archive-file-size benefits are
achieved.

add support for thread scheduling (POSIX TPS option)
linux's sched_* syscalls actually implement the TPS (thread
scheduling) functionality, not the PS (process scheduling)
functionality which the sched_* functions are supposed to have.
omitting support for the PS option (and having the sched_* interfaces
fail with ENOSYS rather than omitting them, since some broken software
assumes they exist) seems to be the only conforming way to do this on
linux.

fix clobber of edx in i386 vsyscall asm
this function does not obey the normal calling convention; like a
syscall instruction, it's expected not to clobber any registers except
the return value. clobbering edx could break callers that were reusing
the value cached in edx after the syscall returns.

always add memory streams to stdio open file list
per interpretation for austin group issue #626, fflush(0) and exit()
must block waiting for a lock if another thread has locked a memory
stream with flockfile. this adds some otherwise-unnecessary
synchronization cost to use of memory streams, but there was already a
synchronization cost calling malloc anyway.
previously the stream was only added to the open file list in
single-threaded programs, so that upon subsequent call to
pthread_create, locking could be turned on for the stream.

change ldso path file logic to replace rather than add to search path
this change was originally intended just to avoid repeated attempts to
open a nonexistant /etc/ls-musl-$(ARCH).path file, but I realized it
also prevents the default paths from being searched when such a path
file exists. despite the potential to break existing usage, I believe
the new behavior is the right behavior, and it's better to fix it
sooner rather than later. with the old behavior, it was impossible to
inhibit search of default paths which might contain musl-incompatible
libs (or even libs from a different cpu arch, on multi-arch machines).

fix "configure --prefix=" and improve path/arg handling in configure
previously, empty string was treated as "use default". this is
apparently not compatible with standard configure semantics where an
empty prefix puts everything under /. the new logic should be a lot
cleaner and not suffer from such issues.

clean up sloppy nested inclusion from pthread_impl.h
this mirrors the stdio_impl.h cleanup. one header which is not
strictly needed, errno.h, is left in pthread_impl.h, because since
pthread functions return their error codes rather than using errno,
nearly every single pthread function needs the errno constants.
in a few places, rather than bringing in string.h to use memset, the
memset was replaced by direct assignment. this seems to generate much
better code anyway, and makes many functions which were previously
non-leaf functions into leaf functions (possibly eliminating a great
deal of bloat on some platforms where non-leaf functions require ugly
prologue and/or epilogue).
