Even if C/POSIX standard states that exit is not formally thread-unsafe,
calling it more than once is UB. The glibc already supports
it for the single-thread, and both elf/nodelete2.c and tst-rseq-disable.c
call exit from a DSO destructor (which is called by _dl_fini, registered
at program startup with __cxa_atexit).
However, there are still race issues when it is called more than once
concurrently by multiple threads. A recent Rust PR triggered this
issue [1], which resulted in an Austin Group ask for clarification [2].
Besides it, there is a discussion to make concurrent calling not UB [3],
wtih a defined semantic where any remaining callers block until the first
call to exit has finished (reentrant calls, leaving through longjmp, and
exceptions are still undefined).
For glibc, at least reentrant calls are required to be supported to avoid
changing the current behaviour. This requires locking using a recursive
lock, where any exit called by atexit() handlers resumes at the point of
the current handler (thus avoiding calling the current handle multiple
times).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.

The existing description for setrlimit() has some ambiguity. It could be
understood to have the semantics of getrlimit(), i.e., the limits from the
process are stored in the provided rlp pointer.
Make the description more explicit that rlp are the input values, and that
the limits of the process is changed with this function.

The manual entry for `putc' described what "most systems" do instead of
describing the glibc implementation and its guarantees. This commit
fixes that by warning that putc may be implemented as a macro that
double-evaluates `stream', and removing the performance claim.
Even though the current `putc' implementation does not double-evaluate
`stream', offering this obscure guarantee as an extension to what
POSIX allows does not seem very useful.
The entry for `putwc' is also edited to bring it in line with `putc'.

Complement commit b03e4d7bd2 ("stdio: fix vfscanf with matches longer
than INT_MAX (bug 27650)") and add a test case for the issue, inspired
by the reproducer provided with the bug report.
This has been verified to succeed as from the commit referred and fail
beforehand.
As the test requires 2GiB of data to be passed around its performance
has been evaluated using a choice of systems and the execution time
determined to be respectively in the range of 9s for POWER9@2.166GHz,
24s for FU740@1.2GHz, and 40s for 74Kf@950MHz. As this is on the verge
of and beyond the default timeout it has been increased by the factor of
8. Regardless, following recent practice the test has been added to the
standard rather than extended set.

Add a FAIL test failure helper analogous to FAIL_RET, that does not
cause the current function to return, providing a standardized way to
report a test failure with a message supplied while permitting the
caller to continue executing, for further reporting, cleaning up, etc.
Update existing test cases that provide a conflicting definition of FAIL
by removing the local FAIL definition and then as follows:
- tst-fortify-syslog: provide a meaningful message in addition to the
file name already added by <support/check.h>; 'support_record_failure'
is already called by 'support_print_failure_impl' invoked by the new
FAIL test failure helper.
- tst-ctype: no update to FAIL calls required, with the name of the file
and the line number within of the failure site additionally included
by the new FAIL test failure helper, and error counting plus count
reporting upon test program termination also already provided by
'support_record_failure' and 'support_report_failure' respectively,
called by 'support_print_failure_impl' and 'adjust_exit_status' also
respectively. However in a number of places 'printf' is called and
the error count adjusted by hand, so update these places to make use
of FAIL instead. And last but not least adjust the final summary just
to report completion, with any error count following as reported by
the test driver.
- test-tgmath2: no update to FAIL calls required, with the name of the
file of the failure site additionally included by the new FAIL test
failure helper. Also there is no need to track the return status by
hand as any call to FAIL will eventually cause the test case to return
an unsuccesful exit status regardless of the return status from the
test function, via a call to 'adjust_exit_status' made by the test
driver.

Improve aligned_alloc/calloc/malloc test coverage by adding
multi-threaded tests with random memory allocations and with/without
cross-thread memory deallocations.
Perform a number of memory allocation calls with random sizes limited
to 0xffff.
Use the existing DSO ('malloc/tst-aligned_alloc-lib.c') to randomize
allocator selection.
The multi-threaded allocation/deallocation is staged as described below:
- Stage 1: Half of the threads will be allocating memory and the
other half will be waiting for them to finish the allocation.
- Stage 2: Half of the threads will be allocating memory and the
other half will be deallocating memory.
- Stage 3: Half of the threads will be deallocating memory and the
second half waiting on them to finish.
Add 'malloc/tst-aligned-alloc-random-thread.c' where each thread will
deallocate only the memory that was previously allocated by itself.
Add 'malloc/tst-aligned-alloc-random-thread-cross.c' where each thread
will deallocate memory that was previously allocated by another thread.
The intention is to be able to utilize existing malloc testing to ensure
that similar allocation APIs are also exposed to the same rigors.
