to make use of {sem,shm,msg}ctl IPC_STAT functionality to provide
64-bit time_t on 32-bit archs, IPC_STAT and related macros must be
defined with bit 8 (0x100) set. allow archs to define IPC_STAT in
bits/ipc.h, and define the other macros in terms of it so that they
all get the same value of the time64 bit.
introduced to stat ipc objects without permission checks since the
info is available in /proc/sysvipc anyway, new in linux commits

*_HUGE_SHIFT, *_HUGE_2MB, *_HUGE_1GB are documented in the man page,
so add all of the *_HUGE_* macros from linux uapi.
if MAP_HUGETLB is set, top bits of the mmap flags encode the page size.
see the linux commit aafd4562dfee81a40ba21b5ea3cf5e06664bc7f6
if SHM_HUGETLB is set, top bits of the shmget flags encode the page size.
see the linux commit 4da243ac1cf6aeb30b7c555d56208982d66d6d33
*_HUGE_16GB is defined unsigned to avoid signed left shift ub.
in fixing this, I've changed the logic from ugly #if/#else blocks
inside the struct shm_info definition to a fixed struct definition and
optional macros to rename the elements. this will be helpful if we
need to move shm_info to a bits header in the future, as it will keep
the feature test logic out of bits.
this type is not really intended to be used; it's just there to allow
implementations to choose the type for the shm_nattch member of
struct shmid_sh, presumably since historical implementations disagreed
on the type. in any case, it needs to be there, so now it is.
the old behavior of exposing nothing except plain ISO C can be
obtained by defining __STRICT_ANSI__ or using a compiler option (such
as -std=c99) that predefines it. the new default featureset is POSIX
with XSI plus _BSD_SOURCE. any explicit feature test macros will
inhibit the default.
installation docs have also been updated to reflect this change.
some of these definitions were just plain wrong, others based on
outdated ancient "non-64" versions of the kernel interface.
as much as possible has now been moved out of bits/*
these changes break abi (the old abi for these functions was wrong),
but since they were not working anyway it can hardly matter.
