fix multiple bugs in syslog interfaces
1. as reported by William Haddon, the value returned by snprintf was
wrongly used as a length passed to sendto, despite it possibly
exceeding the buffer length. this could lead to invalid reads and
leaking additional data to syslog.
2. openlog was storing a pointer to the ident string passed by the
caller, rather than copying it. this bug is shared with (and even
documented in) other implementations like glibc, but such behavior
does not seem to meet the requirements of the standard.
3. extremely long ident provided to openlog, or corrupt ident due to
the above issue, could possibly have resulted in buffer overflows.
despite having the potential for smashing the stack, i believe the
impact is low since ident points to a short string literal in typical
application usage (and per the above bug, other usages will break
horribly on other implementations).
4. when used with LOG_NDELAY, openlog was not connecting the
newly-opened socket; sendto was being used instead. this defeated the
main purpose of LOG_NDELAY: preparing for chroot.
5. the default facility was not being used at all, so all messages
without an explicit facility passed to syslog were getting logged at
the kernel facility.
6. setlogmask was not thread-safe; no synchronization was performed
updating the mask. the fix uses atomics rather than locking to avoid
introducing a lock in the fast path for messages whose priority is not
in the mask.
7. in some code paths, the syslog lock was being unlocked twice; this
could result in releasing a lock that was actually held by a different
thread.
some additional enhancements to syslog such as a default identifier
based on argv[0] or similar may still be desired; at this time, only
the above-listed bugs have been fixed.

fix types for wctype_t and wctrans_t
wctype_t was incorrectly "int" rather than "long" on x86_64. not only
is this an ABI incompatibility; it's also a major design flaw if we
ever wanted wctype_t to be implemented as a pointer, which would be
necessary if locales support custom character classes, since int is
too small to store a converted pointer. this commit fixes wctype_t to
be unsigned long on all archs, matching the LSB ABI; this change does
not matter for C code, but for C++ it affects mangling.
the same issue applied to wctrans_t. glibc/LSB defines this type as
const __int32_t *, but since no such definition is visible, I've just
expanded the definition, int, everywhere.
it would be nice if these types (which don't vary by arch) could be in
wctype.h, but the OB XSI requirement in POSIX that wchar.h expose some
types and functions from wctype.h precludes doing so. glibc works
around this with some hideous hacks, but trying to duplicate that

overhaul posix_spawn to use CLONE_VM instead of vfork
the proposed change was described in detail in detail previously on

1. the compiler could make optimizations that cause the child to
clobber the parent's local vars.
2. strace is buggy and allows the vforking parent to run before the
child execs when run under strace.
the new design uses a close-on-exec pipe instead of vfork semantics to
synchronize the parent and child so that the parent does not return
before the child has finished using its arguments (and now, also its
stack). this also allows reporting exec failures to the caller instead
of giving the caller a child that mysteriously exits with status 127
on exec error.

pthread stack treatment overhaul for application-provided stacks, etc.
the main goal of these changes is to address the case where an
application provides a stack of size N, but TLS has size M that's a
significant portion of the size N (or even larger than N), thus giving
the application less stack space than it expected or no stack at all!
the new strategy pthread_create now uses is to only put TLS on the
application-provided stack if TLS is smaller than 1/8 of the stack
size or 2k, whichever is smaller. this ensures that the application
always has "close enough" to what it requested, and the threshold is
chosen heuristically to make sure "sane" amounts of TLS still end up
in the application-provided stack.
if TLS does not fit the above criteria, pthread_create uses mmap to
obtain space for TLS, but still uses the application-provided stack
for actual call frame stack. this is to avoid wasting memory, and for
the sake of supporting ugly hacks like garbage collection based on
assumptions that the implementation will use the provided stack range.
in order for the above heuristics to ever succeed, the amount of TLS
space wasted on POSIX TSD (pthread_key_create based) needed to be
reduced. otherwise, these changes would preclude any use of
pthread_create without mmap, which would have serious memory usage and
performance costs for applications trying to create huge numbers of
threads using pre-allocated stack space. the new value of
PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX is the minimum allowed by POSIX, 128. this should
still be plenty more than real-world applications need, especially now
that C11/gcc-style TLS is now supported in musl, and most apps and
libraries choose to use that instead of POSIX TSD when available.
at the same time, PTHREAD_STACK_MIN has been decreased. it was
originally set to PAGE_SIZE back when there was no support for TLS or
application-provided stacks, and requests smaller than a whole page
did not make sense. now, there are two good reasons to support
requests smaller than a page: (1) applications could provide
pre-allocated stacks smaller than a page, and (2) with smaller stack
sizes, stack+TLS+TSD can all fit in one page, making it possible for
applications which need huge numbers of threads with minimal stack
needs to allocate exactly one page per thread. the new value of
PTHREAD_STACK_MIN, 2k, is aligned with the minimum size for
sigaltstack.

use a common definition of NULL as 0L for C and C++
the historical mess of having different definitions for C and C++
comes from the historical C definition as (void *)0 and the fact that
(void *)0 can't be used in C++ because it does not convert to other
pointer types implicitly. however, using plain 0 in C++ exposed bugs
in C++ programs that call variadic functions with NULL as an argument
and (wrongly; this is UB) expect it to arrive as a null pointer. on
64-bit machines, the high bits end up containing junk. glibc dodges
the issue by using a GCC extension __null to define NULL; this is
observably non-conforming because a conforming application could
observe the definition of NULL via stringizing and see that it is
neither an integer constant expression with value zero nor such an
expression cast to void.
switching to 0L eliminates the issue and provides compatibility with
broken applications, since on all musl targets, long and pointers have
the same size, representation, and argument-passing convention. we
could maintain separate C and C++ definitions of NULL (i.e. just use
0L on C++ and use (void *)0 on C) but after careful analysis, it seems
extremely difficult for a C program to even determine whether NULL has
integer or pointer type, much less depend in subtle, unintentional
ways, on whether it does. C89 seems to have no way to make the
distinction. on C99, the fact that (int)(void *)0 is not an integer
constant expression, along with subtle VLA/sizeof semantics, can be
used to make the distinction, but many compilers are non-conforming
and give the wrong result to this test anyway. on C11, _Generic can
trivially make the distinction, but it seems unlikely that code
targetting C11 would be so backwards in caring which definition of
NULL an implementation uses.
as such, the simplest path of using the same definition for NULL in
both C and C++ was chosen. the #undef directive was also removed so
that the compiler can catch and give a warning or error on
redefinition if buggy programs have defined their own versions of
NULL prior to inclusion of standard headers.

math: bessel cleanup (jn.c and jnf.c)
both jn and yn functions had integer overflow issues for large

to handle these issues nm1 (== |n|-1) is used instead of n and -n
in the code and some loops are changed to make sure the iteration
counter does not overflow
(another solution could be to use larger integer type or even double
but that has more size and runtime cost, on x87 loading int64_t or
even uint32_t into an fpu register is more than two times slower than
loading int32_t, and using double for n slows down iteration logic)
yn(-1,0) now returns inf
posix2008 specifies that on overflow and at +-0 all y0,y1,yn functions
return -inf, this is not consistent with math when n<0 odd integer in yn
(eg. when x->0, yn(-1,x)->inf, but historically yn(-1,0) seems to be
special cased and returned -inf)

clean up and fix logic for making mmap fail on invalid/unsupported offsets
the previous logic was assuming the kernel would give EINVAL when
passed an invalid address, but instead with MAP_FIXED it was giving
EPERM, as it considered this an attempt to map over kernel memory.
instead of trying to get the kernel to do the rigth thing, the new
code just handles the error in userspace.
I have also cleaned up the code to use a single mask to check for
invalid low bits and unsupported high bits, so it's simpler and more
clearly correct. the old code was actually wrong for sizeof(long)
smaller than sizeof(off_t) but not equal to 4; now it should be
correct for all possibilities.
for 64-bit systems, the low-bits test is new and extraneous (the
kernel should catch the error anyway when the mmap2 syscall is not
used), but it's cheap anyway. if this is an issue, the OFF_MASK
definition could be tweaked to omit the low bits when SYS_mmap2 is not
defined.

* return type of conj and cproj were wrong on int arguments

(usually we don't have comments in public headers but this is
not the biggest issue with tgmath.h)
casting the result to the right type cannot be done in c99
(c11 _Generic can solve this but that is not widely supported),
so the typeof extension of gcc is used and that the ?: operator
has special semantics when one of the operands is a null
pointer constant
the standard is very strict about the definition of null
pointer constants so typeof with ?: is still not enough so
compiler specific workaround is used for now
on gcc '!1.0' is a null pointer constant so we can use the old
__IS_FP logic (eventhough it's non-standard)
on clang (and on gcc as well) 'sizeof(void)-1' is a null
pointer constant so we can use
!(sizeof(*(0?(int*)0:(void*)__IS_FP(x)))-1)
(this is non-standard as well), the old logic is used by
default and this new one on clang
