WriteConsoleW can fail if called with a large buffer so we need to slice
any stdout/stderr output.
However the current slicing has a few problems:
1. It slices by byte but still expects valid UTF-8.
2. The slicing happens even when not outputting to a console.
3. panic! output is not sliced.
This fixes these issues by moving the slice to right before
WriteConsoleW and slicing on a char boundary.
Semantically there's actually no reason for us to spawn threads as part of the
call to `wait_with_output`, and that's generally an incredibly heavyweight
operation for just reading a few bytes (especially when stderr probably rarely
has bytes!). An equivalent operation in terms of what's implemented today would
be to just drain both pipes of all contents and then call `wait` on the child
process itself.
On Unix we can implement this through some convenient use of the `select`
function, whereas on Windows we can make use of overlapped I/O. Note that on
Windows this requires us to use named pipes instead of anonymous pipes, but
they're semantically the same under the hood.
This pushes the implementation detail of proxying `read_to_end` through to
`read_to_end_uninitialized` all the way down to the `FileDesc` and `Handle`
implementations on Unix/Windows. This way intermediate layers will also be able
to take advantage of this optimized implementation.
This commit also adds the optimized implementation for `ChildStdout` and
`ChildStderr`.

* Delete `sys::unix::{c, sync}` as these are now all folded into libc itself
* Update all references to use `libc` as a result.
* Update all references to the new flat namespace.
* Moves all windows bindings into sys::c
The common pattern `iter::repeat(elt).take(n).collect::<Vec<_>>()` is
exactly equivalent to `vec![elt; n]`, do this replacement in the whole
tree.
(Actually, vec![] is smart enough to only call clone n - 1 times, while
the former solution would call clone n times, and this fact is
virtually irrelevant in practice.)
Closes#25977
The various `stdfoo_raw` methods in std::io now return `io::Result`s,
since they may not exist on Windows. They will always return `Ok` on
Unix-like platforms.
[breaking-change]
This takes the cases from InvalidInput where a data format error
was encountered. This is different from the documented semantics
of InvalidInput, which more likely indicate a programming error.
Currently if a standard I/O handle is set to inherited on Windows, no action is
taken and the slot in the process information description is set to
`INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE`. Due to our passing of `STARTF_USESTDHANDLES`, however,
this means that the handle is actually set to nothing and if a child tries to
print it will generate an error.
This commit fixes this behavior by explicitly creating stdio handles to be
placed in these slots by duplicating the current process's I/O handles. This is
presumably what previously happened silently by using a file-descriptor-based
implementation instead of a `HANDLE`-centric implementation.
Along the way this cleans up a lot of code in `Process::spawn` for Windows by
ensuring destructors are always run, using more RAII, and limiting the scope of
`unsafe` wherever possible.
This is an implementation of RFC 899 and adds stdio functionality to the new
`std::io` module. Details of the API can be found on the RFC, but from a high
level:
* `io::{stdin, stdout, stderr}` constructors are now available. There are also
`*_raw` variants for unbuffered and unlocked access.
* All handles are globally shared (excluding raw variants).
* The stderr handle is no longer buffered.
* All handles can be explicitly locked (excluding the raw variants).
The `print!` and `println!` machinery has not yet been hooked up to these
streams just yet. The `std::fmt::output` module has also not yet been
implemented as part of this commit.
