Similar to strstr (1e9a550ba4), power8 strcasestr does not show much
improvement compared to the generic implementation. The geomean
on bench-strcasestr shows:
__strcasestr_power8 __strcasestr_ppc
power10 1159 1120
power9 1640 1469
power8 1787 1904
The strcasestr uses the same 'trick' as power7 strstr to detect
potential quadradic behavior, which only adds overheads for input
that trigger quadradic behavior and it is really a hack.

Also, there is no need to redirect the internal str*/mem* call

Complete the internal renaming from "C2X" and related names in GCC by
renaming *-c2x and *-gnu2x tests to *-c23 and *-gnu23.
Tested for x86_64, and with build-many-glibcs.py for powerpc64le.
WG14 decided to use the name C23 as the informal name of the next
revision of the C standard (notwithstanding the publication date in
2024). Update references to C2X in glibc to use the C23 name.
This is intended to update everything *except* where it involves
renaming files (the changes involving renaming tests are intended to
be done separately). In the case of the _ISOC2X_SOURCE feature test
macro - the only user-visible interface involved - support for that
macro is kept for backwards compatibility, while adding
_ISOC23_SOURCE.
Tested for x86_64.
According to ISO C23 (7.6.4.4), fesetexcept is supposed to set
floating-point exception flags without raising a trap (unlike
feraiseexcept, which is supposed to raise a trap if feenableexcept was
called with the appropriate argument).
This is a side-effect of how we implement the GNU extension
feenableexcept, where feenableexcept/fesetenv/fesetmode/feupdateenv
might issue prctl (PR_SET_FPEXC, PR_FP_EXC_PRECISE) depending of the
argument. And on PR_FP_EXC_PRECISE, setting a floating-point exception
flag triggers a trap.
To make the both functions follow the C23, fesetexcept and
fesetexceptflag now fail if the argument may trigger a trap.
The math tests now check for an value different than 0, instead
of bail out as unsupported for EXCEPTION_SET_FORCES_TRAP.

GCC 13 has added more _FloatN and _FloatNx versions of existing
<math.h> and <complex.h> built-in functions, for use in libstdc++-v3.
This breaks the glibc build because of how those functions are defined
as aliases to functions with the same ABI but different types. Add
appropriate -fno-builtin-* options for compiling relevant files, as
already done for the case of long double functions aliasing double
ones and based on the list of files used there.
I fixed some mistakes in that list of double files that I noticed
while implementing this fix, but there may well be more such
(harmless) cases, in this list or the new one (files that don't
actually exist or don't define the named functions as aliases so don't
need the options). I did try to exclude cases where glibc doesn't
define certain functions for _FloatN or _FloatNx types at all from the
new uses of -fno-builtin-* options. As with the options for double
files (see the commit message for commit
49348beafe, "Fix build with GCC 10 when
long double = double."), it's deliberate that the options are used
even if GCC currently doesn't have a built-in version of a given
functions, so providing some level of future-proofing against more
such built-in functions being added in future.

In the future, this will result in a compilation failure if the
macros are unexpectedly undefined (due to header inclusion ordering
or header inclusion missing altogether).
Assembler sources are more difficult to convert. In many cases,
they are hand-optimized for the mangling and no-mangling variants,
which is why they are not converted.
sysdeps/s390/s390-32/__longjmp.c and sysdeps/s390/s390-64/__longjmp.c
are special: These are C sources, but most of the implementation is
in assembler, so the PTR_DEMANGLE macro has to be undefined in some
cases, to match the assembler style.

GCC 13 adds support for _FloatN and _FloatNx types in C++, so breaking
the installed glibc headers that assume such support is not present.
GCC mostly works around this with fixincludes, but that doesn't help
for building glibc and its tests (glibc doesn't itself contain C++
code, but there's C++ code built for tests). Update glibc's
bits/floatn-common.h and bits/floatn.h headers to handle the GCC 13
support directly.
In general the changes match those made by fixincludes, though I think
the ones in sysdeps/powerpc/bits/floatn.h, where the header tests
__LDBL_MANT_DIG__ == 113 or uses #elif, wouldn't match the existing
fixincludes patterns.
Some places involving special C++ handling in relation to _FloatN
support are not changed. There's no need to change the
__HAVE_FLOATN_NOT_TYPEDEF definition (also in a form that wouldn't be
matched by the fixincludes fixes) because it's only used in relation
to macro definitions using features not supported for C++
(__builtin_types_compatible_p and _Generic). And there's no need to
change the inline function overloads for issignaling, iszero and
iscanonical in C++ because cases where types have the same format but
are no longer compatible types are handled automatically by the C++
overload resolution rules.
This patch also does not change the overload handling for iseqsig, and
there I think changes *are* needed, beyond those in this patch or made
by fixincludes. The way that overload is defined, via a template
parameter to a structure type, requires overloads whenever the types
are incompatible, even if they have the same format. So I think we
need to add overloads with GCC 13 for every supported _FloatN and
_FloatNx type, rather than just having one for _Float128 when it has a
different ABI to long double as at present (but for older GCC, such
overloads must not be defined for types that end up defined as
typedefs for another type).

Rather than buffering 16 MiB of entropy in userspace (by way of
chacha20), simply call getrandom() every time.
This approach is doubtlessly slower, for now, but trying to prematurely
optimize arc4random appears to be leading toward all sorts of nasty
properties and gotchas. Instead, this patch takes a much more
conservative approach. The interface is added as a basic loop wrapper
around getrandom(), and then later, the kernel and libc together can
work together on optimizing that.
This prevents numerous issues in which userspace is unaware of when it
really must throw away its buffer, since we avoid buffering all
together. Future improvements may include userspace learning more from
the kernel about when to do that, which might make these sorts of
chacha20-based optimizations more possible. The current heuristic of 16
MiB is meaningless garbage that doesn't correspond to anything the
kernel might know about. So for now, let's just do something
conservative that we know is correct and won't lead to cryptographic
issues for users of this function.
This patch might be considered along the lines of, "optimization is the
root of all evil," in that the much more complex implementation it
replaces moves too fast without considering security implications,
whereas the incremental approach done here is a much safer way of going
about things. Once this lands, we can take our time in optimizing this
properly using new interplay between the kernel and userspace.
getrandom(0) is used, since that's the one that ensures the bytes
returned are cryptographically secure. But on systems without it, we
fallback to using /dev/urandom. This is unfortunate because it means
opening a file descriptor, but there's not much of a choice. Secondly,
as part of the fallback, in order to get more or less the same
properties of getrandom(0), we poll on /dev/random, and if the poll
succeeds at least once, then we assume the RNG is initialized. This is a
rough approximation, as the ancient "non-blocking pool" initialized
after the "blocking pool", not before, and it may not port back to all
ancient kernels, though it does to all kernels supported by glibc
(≥3.2), so generally it's the best approximation we can do.
The motivation for including arc4random, in the first place, is to have
source-level compatibility with existing code. That means this patch
doesn't attempt to litigate the interface itself. It does, however,
choose a conservative approach for implementing it.
