This commit implements the `exec` function proposed in [RFC 1359][rfc] which is
a function on the `CommandExt` trait to execute all parts of a `Command::spawn`
without the `fork` on Unix. More details on the function itself can be found in
the comments in the commit.

Most of this is platform-specific anyway, and we generally have to jump through
fewer hoops to do the equivalent operation on Windows. One benefit for Windows
today is that this new structure avoids an extra `DuplicateHandle` when creating
pipes. For Unix, however, the behavior should be the same.
Note that this is just a pure refactoring, no functionality was added or
removed.
The function `CreateProcess` is not itself unsafe to call from many threads, the
article in question is pointing out that handles can be inherited by unintended
child processes. This is basically the same race as the standard Unix
open-then-set-cloexec race.
Since the intention of the lock is to protect children from inheriting
unintended handles, the lock is now lifted out to before the creation of the
child I/O handles (which will all be inheritable). This will ensure that we only
have one process in Rust at least creating inheritable handles at a time,
preventing unintended inheritance to children.
On Unix we have to be careful to not call `waitpid` twice, but we don't have to
be careful on Windows due to the way process handles work there. As a result the
cached `Option<ExitStatus>` is only necessary on Unix, and it's also just an
implementation detail of the Unix module.
At the same time. also update some code in `kill` on Unix to avoid a wonky
waitpid with WNOHANG. This was added in 0e190b9a to solve #13124, but the
`signal(0)` method is not supported any more so there's no need to for this
workaround. I believe that this is no longer necessary as it's not really doing
anything.
This is a Unix-specific function which adds the ability to register a closure to
run pre-exec to configure the child process as required (note that these
closures are run post-fork).

* Build up the argp/envp pointers while the `Command` is being constructed
rather than only when `spawn` is called. This will allow better sharing of
code between fork/exec paths.
* Rename `child_after_fork` to `exec` and have it only perform the exec half of
the spawning. This also means the return type has changed to `io::Error`
rather than `!` to represent errors that happen.
A spec like `#[cfg(foo(bar))]` is not allowed as an attribute. This
makes the same spec be rejected by the compiler if passed in as a
`--cfg` argument.

collections: Use slice parts in PartialEq for VecDeque
This improves == for VecDeque by using the slice representation.
This will also improve further if codegen for slice comparison improves.
Benchmark run of 1000 u64 elements, comparing for equality (all equal).
Cpu time to compare the vecdeques is reduced to less than 50% of what it
was before.
```
test test_eq_u64 ... bench: 1,885 ns/iter (+/- 163) = 4244 MB/s
test test_eq_new_u64 ... bench: 802 ns/iter (+/- 100) = 9975 MB/s
```
The compiler currently vendors its own version of "llvm-ar" (not literally the
binary but rather the library support) and uses it for all major targets by
default (e.g. everything defined in `src/librustc_back/target`). All custom
target specs, however, still search for an `ar` tool by default. This commit
changes this default behavior to using the internally bundled llvm-ar with the
GNU format.
Currently all targets use the GNU format except for OSX which uses the BSD
format (surely makes sense, right?), and custom targets can change the format
via the `archive-format` key in custom target specs.
I suspect that we can outright remove support for invoking an external `ar`
utility, but I figure for now there may be some crazy target relying on that so
we should leave support in for now.
After [considerable pushback](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/1451), it's clear that there is a community consensus around providing `IpAddr` in the standard library, together with other APIs using it.
This commit reverts from deprecated status directly to stable. The deprecation landed in 1.6, which has already been released, so the stabilization is marked for 1.7 (currently in beta; will require a backport).

This commit does two things:
* Re-works the module-level documentation.
* Cleaning up wording and adding links to where error types are used.
Part of #29364

Since a lexicographic ordering of a struct could vary based on which struct members are compared first, I ended up doing some testing to ensure that the behavior when deriving these traits was what I expected (ordered based on the top to bottom order of declaration of the members). I wanted to add this little bit of documentation to potentially save someone else the same effort. That is, assuming that my testing correctly reflects the intended behavior of the compiler.
