fix signed and unsigned comparision in macros in public headers

gcc -Wsign-compare warns about expanded macros that were defined in
standard headers (before gcc 4.8) which can make builds fail that
use -Werror. changed macros: WIFSIGNALED, __CPU_op_S

adjust sys/wait.h not to produde errors in strict ISO C feature profile

siginfo_t is not available from signal.h when the strict ISO C feature
profile (e.g. passing -std=c99 to gcc without defining any other
feature test macros) is used, but the type is needed to declare
waitid. using sys/wait.h (or any POSIX headers) in strict ISO C mode
is an application bug, but in the interest of compatibility, it's best
to avoid producing gratuitous errors. the simplest fix I could find is
suppressing the declaration of waitid (and also signal.h inclusion,
since it's not needed for anything else) in this case, while still
exposing everything else in sys/wait.h


# 41c63282 10-Aug-2013 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

fix definitions of WIFSTOPPED and WIFSIGNALED to support up to signal 127

mips has signal numbers up to 127 (formerly, up to 128, but the last
one never worked right and caused kernel panic when used), so 127 in
the "signal number" field of the wait status is insufficient for
determining that the process was stopped. in addition, a nonzero value
in the upper bits must be present, indicating the signal number which
caused the process to be stopped.

details on this issue can be seen in the email with message id
CAAG0J9-d4BfEhbQovFqUAJ3QoOuXScrpsY1y95PrEPxA5DWedQ@mail.gmail.com on
the linux-mips mailing list, archived at:
http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2013-06/msg00552.html
and in the associated thread about fixing the mips kernel bug.

commit 4a96b948687166da26a6c327e6c6733ad2336c5c fixed the
corresponding issue in uClibc, but introduced a multiple-evaluation
issue for the WIFSTOPPED macro.

for the most part, none of these issues affected pure musl systems,
since musl has up until now (incorrectly) defined SIGRTMAX as 64 on
all archs, even mips. however, interpreting status of non-musl
programs on mips may have caused problems. with this change, the full
range of signal numbers can be made available on mips.


# 9448b051 22-Jul-2013 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

refactor headers, especially alltypes.h, and improve C++ ABI compat

the arch-specific bits/alltypes.h.sh has been replaced with a generic
alltypes.h.in and minimal arch-specific bits/alltypes.h.in.

this commit is intended to have no functional changes except:
- exposing additional symbols that POSIX allows but does not require
- changing the C++ name mangling for some types
- fixing the signedness of blksize_t on powerpc (POSIX requires signed)
- fixing the limit macros for sig_atomic_t on x86_64
- making dev_t an unsigned type (ABI matching goal, and more logical)

in addition, some types that were wrongly defined with long on 32-bit
archs were changed to int, and vice versa; this change is
non-functional except for the possibility of making pointer types
mismatch, and only affects programs that were using them incorrectly,
and only at build-time, not runtime.

the following changes were made in the interest of moving
non-arch-specific types out of the alltypes system and into the
headers they're associated with, and also will tend to improve
application compatibility:
- netdb.h now includes netinet/in.h (for socklen_t and uint32_t)
- netinet/in.h now includes sys/socket.h and inttypes.h
- sys/resource.h now includes sys/time.h (for struct timeval)
- sys/wait.h now includes signal.h (for siginfo_t)
- langinfo.h now includes nl_types.h (for nl_item)

for the types in stdint.h:
- types which are of no interest to other headers were moved out of
the alltypes system.
- fast types for 8- and 64-bit are hard-coded (at least for now); only
the 16- and 32-bit ones have reason to vary by arch.

and the following types have been changed for C++ ABI purposes;
- mbstate_t now has a struct tag, __mbstate_t
- FILE's struct tag has been changed to _IO_FILE
- DIR's struct tag has been changed to __dirstream
- locale_t's struct tag has been changed to __locale_struct
- pthread_t is defined as unsigned long in C++ mode only
- fpos_t now has a struct tag, _G_fpos64_t
- fsid_t's struct tag has been changed to __fsid_t
- idtype_t has been made an enum type (also required by POSIX)
- nl_catd has been changed from long to void *
- siginfo_t's struct tag has been removed
- sigset_t's has been given a struct tag, __sigset_t
- stack_t has been given a struct tag, sigaltstack
- suseconds_t has been changed to long on 32-bit archs
- [u]intptr_t have been changed from long to int rank on 32-bit archs
- dev_t has been made unsigned

summary of tests that have been performed against these changes:
- nsz's libc-test (diff -u before and after)
- C++ ABI check symbol dump (diff -u before, after, glibc)
- grepped for __NEED, made sure types needed are still in alltypes
- built gcc 3.4.6


# e895ddc0 01-Jan-2013 rofl0r <retnyg@gmx.net>

wait.h: add linux specific, thread-related waitpid() flags

these flags are needed in order to be able to handle lwp id's
which the kernel returns after clone() calls for new threads
via ptrace(PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG).

fortunately, they're the same for all archs and in the reserved
namespace.


# 4eb4844b 21-Oct-2012 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

fix issues with wait constants in stdlib.h

the W* namespace is not reserved, so the nonstandard ones must be
moved under extension features. also WNOHANG and WUNTRACED were
missing.


# c1a9658b 07-Sep-2012 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

default features: make musl usable without feature test macros

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.


# 419ae6d5 22-May-2012 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

support _BSD_SOURCE feature test macro

patch by Isaac Dunham. matched closely (maybe not exact) to glibc's
idea of what _BSD_SOURCE should make visible.


# 4b5f0540 21-Apr-2011 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

move wait.h macros out of bits. they do not vary.


# f492c954 21-Apr-2011 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

include signal.h to avoid thorny __sigcontext/sigcontext issues

this is explicitly allowed by POSIX
