Cygwin: Improve FAQ on early breakpoint for ASLR
gdb supports the 'disable-randomization' setting on Windows since [1]
(included in gdb 13).

Ken Brown 5d4f405d3b Cygwin: redefine some macros for Linux compatibility
Define FD_SETSIZE (<sys/select.h>) to be 1024 by default, and define
NOFILE (<sys/param.h>) to be OPEN_MAX (== 3200) by default.

Remove the comment in <sys/select.h> that FD_SETSIZE should be >=
NOFILE.

Bump API minor.

This reverts commit 1f8f7e2d54, "* libc/stdio/refill.c (__srefill):

input functions will now immediately return EOF rather than trying
again to read.  This aligns Cygwin's behavior to that of Linux.

Cygwin: Conditionally build documentation
Add a configure option '--disable-doc' to disable building of the
documentation by the 'all' target.

Check for the required tools at configure time, and require them if
building documentation is enabled.

Even if building the documentation was diabled with '--disable-doc',
'make -C doc' at the top-level can still make the documentation, if the
documentation tools were found. If the tools were not found, 'missing'
is used to issue a warning about that.

Update instructions for building Cygwin appropriately.

(Building documentation remains the default to increase the chances of
noticing when building the documentation is broken.)

But Linux in fact allows the speed to be the numerical baud rate

Cygwin: Use cmdsynopsis element in utils documentation
Use <cmdsynopsis> element markup in utils docbook documentation, rather
than some preformatted text inside <screen>.

(This didn't happen as part of 646745cb, when we first started using
refentry elements to make it possible to generate manpages)

This helps produce better looking manpages:

* uses bold (for command names) and italic (for replaceable items)
* different output formats inconsistently treat tabs inside <screen>
(so we have to be careful to not use them in that preformatted text)

Also clean up various issues:

* Replace '[OPTIONS]' with a real synopsis of the options
* Consistently use 'ITEM...' rather than 'ITEM1 [ITEM2...]' for an item
which should appear 1 or more times (cygcheck -f, getfacl, kill)
* Consistently document the '-h | -V' invocation form
* Since replaceable items are now marked up so they have some formatting
indicating they are replaceable, we can drop wrapping them in angle
brackets, as is done in some places
* Add missing '-W' and '-p PID' options to ps synopsis
* Adjust cygpath synopsis to show that only one 'System information'
option is allowed, possibly modified by -A

Future work:
* Sync up the actual help emitted by the util, where it's been improved
* Also don't use <screen> for formatting 'OPTIONS' section of manpage
* pldd inconsistently uses '-?' rather than '-h'!

Cygwin: Remove recursive configure
There's doesn't seem to be much use in independently distributing these
subdirectories, so allowing them to be independently configured seems
pointless and overcomplicated.

The order in which the subdirectories are built is still a little odd,
as cygwin is linked with libcygserver, and cygserver is then linked with
cygwin. So, we build the cygwin directory first, which invokes a build
of libcygserver in the cygserver directory, and then build in the
cygserver directory to build the cygserver executable.

Drop AC_CONFIGURE_ARGS, since we don't need to recursively call
configure with the same arguments anymore.

Slightly refine when we build utils: Previously we didn't build any
utils if MinGW compiler use was avoided, now we just avoid building
those utils which require that compiler.

Greatly simplify how winsup_srcdir and target_builddir are set, since
we're only configuring from one directory.  (These are still kept
absolute, since we don't adjust them where used for being used in a
subdirectory).

Remove configure.cygwin and put it's (greatly reduced) contents inline
in the one place it's used now.

Remove generated configure and aclocal.m4 in subdirectories.

Mark Geisert 362b98b49a Cygwin: Implement CPU_SET(3) macros
This patch supplies an implementation of the CPU_SET(3) processor
affinity macros as documented on the relevant Linux man page.

There is a mostly superset implementation of cpusets under newlib's
libc/sys/RTEMS/include/sys that has Linux and FreeBSD compatibility
and is built on top of FreeBSD bitsets.  This Cygwin implementation
and the RTEMS one could be combined if desired at some future point.

Mark Geisert 641ecb0753 Cygwin: Implement sched_[gs]etaffinity()
This patch set implements the Linux syscalls sched_getaffinity,
sched_setaffinity, pthread_getaffinity_np, and pthread_setaffinity_np.
Linux has a straightforward view of the cpu sets used in affinity masks.
They are simply long (1024-bit) bit masks.  This code emulates that view
while internally dealing with Windows' distribution of available CPUs among
processor groups.

Corinna Vinschen ad101bcb0f Rename <xlocale.h> back to <sys/_locale.h>
libX11 provides <X11/Xlocale.h>.  The build of libX11 itself adds
include/X11 to the compiler's include path.  This results in a name
collision with /usr/include/xlocale.h on case-insensitive filesystems.

Commit 90e35b1eb3 renamed sys/_locale.h to xlocale.h in March 2017 under
the assumption that we should provide the locale_t type in the same file
as on Linux, FreeBSD, and Darwin.

A few weeks later (June 2017), glibc removed the xlocale.h file in favor
of bits/types/locale_t.h, which shouldn't be included directly anyway.

For reference and the reasoning, see
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=f0be25b6336d

Given the above, revert 90e35b1eb3 and
fix additional usage of xlocale.h.
