kamil 7798b8a775 Import <stdnoreturn.h>
This header conforms to the C11 standard
Reference: ISO/IEC 9899:201x 7.23 _Noreturn <stdnoreturn.h>

According to ISO/IEC 9899:201x (draft) <stdnoreturn.> defines the
noreturn macro which expands to _Noreturn.

The _Noreturn keyword appears in a function declaration and specifies
that the function does not return by reaching the end of the function
body.

Design choices:
 - don't implicitly break C++ code including this header with #error
   C++11 offers [[noreturn]] which conflicts with C11 _Noreturn

 - don't check for __STDC_VERSION__, everybody is free to reuse it with
   a nonstandard compiler not conforming to C11 but supporting _Noreturn

   gcc(1) and clang(1) support _Noreturn in -std=c99 and older standards

   this follows <stdbool.h> choice for not checking for C99

 - follow <stdbool.h> and declare the __noreturn_is_defined guard

 - use a standard header guard (_STDNORETURN_H_), similar to <stdbool.h>
