Update the getconf utility to support the new flag as well as
_PC_POSIX_PERMISSIONS and _PC_POSIX_SECURITY. These were previously
unsupported, probably as an oversight.

Long-standing problem in one of the corner cases of rename(2):
If we rename a directory a check is performed to see if newpath is
identical to oldpath or a subdir of oldpath. This check is
(accidentally? no hints anywhere in ChangeLogs or code) performed
case-insensitive for as long as we use Unicode paths and NT functions.
This leads to the problems described in
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-09/msg00264.html
Change this to be conditional case-sensitive as all other checks but
let's take this with a grain of salt. There may be corner-cases in
this corner-case which require to chek parts of the path always
case-insensitive. Off the top of my head I can't construct such a
case but that's no proof they don't exist :}

On Windows 8.1 and later, the NetUserChangePassword call apparently
doesn't accept the usual "\\server" string anymore, but requires to
use the "domain" instead, otherwise it emits en error code 1265,
ERROR_DOWNGRADE_DETECTED. Since this is accepted by pre-8.1 as well,
use the domain indiscriminately when calling NetUserChangePassword
from passwd(1).
While at it, do some minor cleanup in passwd.c.

This patch adds pthread_getname_np and pthread_setname_np.
These were added to glibc in 2.12[1] and are also present in some form on
NetBSD and several UNIXes.
The code is based on NetBSD's implementation with changes to better match
Linux behaviour.
Implementation quirks:
* pthread_setname_np with a NULL pointer segfaults (as linux)
* pthread_setname_np returns ERANGE for names longer than 16 characters (as
linux)
* pthread_getname_np with a NULL pointer returns EFAULT (as linux)
* pthread_getname_np with a buffer length of less than 16 returns ERANGE (as
linux)
* pthread_getname_np truncates the thread name to fit the buffer length.
This guarantees success even when the default thread name is longer than 16
characters, but means there is no way to discover the actual length of the
thread name. (Linux always truncates the thread name to 16 characters)
* Changing program_invocation_short_name changes the default thread name (on
linux, it has no effect on the default thread name)
I'll leave it up to you to decide if any of these matter.
This is implemented via class pthread_attr to make it easier to add
pthread_attr_[gs]etname_np (present in NetBSD and some UNIXes) should it
ever be added to Linux (or we decide we want it anyway).

POSIX requires that SSIZE_MAX have the same type as ssize_t, but
on 32-bit, we were defining it as a long even though ssize_t
resolves to an int. It also requires that SSIZE_MAX be usable
via preprocessor #if, so we can't cheat and use a cast.
If this were newlib, I'd have had to hack _intsup.h to probe the
qualities of size_t (via gcc's __SIZE_TYPE__), similar to how we
already probe the qualities of int8_t and friends, then cross our
fingers that ssize_t happens to have the same rank (most systems
do, but POSIX permits a system where they differ such as size_t
being long while ssize_t is int). Unfortunately gcc gives us
neither __SSIZE_TYPE__ nor __SSIZE_MAX__. On the other hand, our
limits.h is specific to cygwin, so we can just shortcut to the
correct results rather than being generic to all possible ABI.
