Make more code be protected by internal mutex, and now it is fork-safe, in error case, the file exclusive lock is now released as soon as possible, in previous code, child process can still hold the exclusive lock.

libc: Use O_CLOEXEC for various internal file descriptors.
This fixes a race condition where another thread may fork() before CLOEXEC is set, unintentionally passing the descriptor to the child process.
This commit only adds O_CLOEXEC flags to open() or openat() calls where no fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) follows. The separate fcntl() call still leaves a race window so it should be fixed later.

sem_open: Make sure to fail an O_CREAT|O_EXCL open, even if that semaphore is already open in this process.
If the named semaphore is already open, sem_open() only increments a reference count and did not take the flags into account (which otherwise happens by passing them to open()). Add an extra check for O_CREAT|O_EXCL.

In sem_post, the field _has_waiters is no longer used, because some application destroys semaphore after sem_wait returns. Just enter kernel to wake up sleeping threads, only update _has_waiters if it is safe. While here, check if the value exceed SEM_VALUE_MAX and return EOVERFLOW if this is true.

Use version 2 of semaphore provided by kernel umtx code, now if there is no waiters, we still increase and decrease count in user mode without entering kernel, once there is a waiter, sem_post will enter kernel to increase count and wake thread up, this is atomicy and allow us to gracefully destroy semaphore after sem_wait returned.

In revision 231989, we pass a 16-bit clock ID into kernel, however according to POSIX document, the clock ID may be dynamically allocated, it unlikely will be in 64K forever. To make it future compatible, we pack all timeout information into a new structure called _umtx_time, and use fourth argument as a size indication, a zero means it is old code using timespec as timeout value, but the new structure also includes flags and a clock ID, so the size argument is different than before, and it is non-zero. With this change, it is possible that a thread can sleep on any supported clock, though current kernel code does not have such a POSIX clock driver system.

To support stack unwinding for cancellation points, add -fexceptions flag for them, two functions _pthread_cancel_enter and _pthread_cancel_leave are added to let thread enter and leave a cancellation point, it also makes it possible that other functions can be cancellation points in libraries without having to be rewritten in libthr.

Don't forget to use fourth argument if O_CREAT is set in argument oflag. The fourth specifies initial value for the semaphore.

Use umtx to implement process sharable semaphore, to make this work, now type sema_t is a structure which can be put in a shared memory area, and multiple processes can operate it concurrently. User can either use mmap(MAP_SHARED) + sem_init(pshared=1) or use sem_open() to initialize a shared semaphore. Named semaphore uses file system and is located in /tmp directory, and its file name is prefixed with 'SEMD', so now it is chroot or jail friendly. In simplist cases, both for named and un-named semaphore, userland code does not have to enter kernel to reduce/increase semaphore's count. The semaphore is designed to be crash-safe, it means even if an application is crashed in the middle of operating semaphore, the semaphore state is still safely recovered by later use, there is no waiter counter maintained by userland code. The main semaphore code is in libc and libthr only has some necessary stubs, this makes it possible that a non-threaded application can use semaphore without linking to thread library. Old semaphore implementation is kept libc to maintain binary compatibility. The kernel ksem API is no longer used in the new implemenation.
