Adds IEEE 754-2019 minimun and maximum functions for f32/f64
IEEE 754-2019 removed the `minNum` (`min` in Rust) and `maxNum` (`max` in Rust) operations in favor of the newly created `minimum` and `maximum` operations due to their [non-associativity](https://grouper.ieee.org/groups/msc/ANSI_IEEE-Std-754-2019/background/minNum_maxNum_Removal_Demotion_v3.pdf) that cannot be fix in a backwards compatible manner. This PR adds `fN::{minimun,maximum}` functions following the new rules.
### IEEE 754-2019 Rules
> **minimum(x, y)** is x if x < y, y if y < x, and a quiet NaN if either operand is a NaN, according to 6.2.
For this operation, −0 compares less than +0. Otherwise (i.e., when x = y and signs are the same)
it is either x or y.
> **maximum(x, y)** is x if x > y, y if y > x, and a quiet NaN if either operand is a NaN, according to 6.2.
For this operation, +0 compares greater than −0. Otherwise (i.e., when x = y and signs are the
same) it is either x or y.

### Implementation
This implementation is inspired by the one in [`glibc` ](90f0ac10a7/math/s_fminimum_template.c) (it self derived from the C2X draft) expect that:
- it doesn't use `copysign` because it's not available in `core` and also because `copysign` is unnecessary (we only want to check the sign, no need to create a new float)
- it also prefer `other > self` instead of `self < other` like IEEE 754-2019 does
I originally tried to implement them [using intrinsics](1d8aa13bc3) but LLVM [error out](https://godbolt.org/z/7sMrxW49a) when trying to lower them to machine intructions, GCC doesn't yet have built-ins for them, only cranelift support them nativelly (as it doesn't support the nativelly the old sementics).

Windows: Resolve `process::Command` program without using the current directory
Currently `std::process::Command` searches many directories for the executable to run, including the current directory. This has lead to a [CVE for `ripgrep`](https://cve.circl.lu/cve/CVE-2021-3013) but presumably other command line utilities could be similarly vulnerable if they run commands. This was [discussed on the internals forum](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/std-command-resolve-to-avoid-security-issues-on-windows/14800). Also discussed was [which directories should be searched](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/windows-where-should-command-new-look-for-executables/15015).
EDIT: This PR originally removed all implicit paths. They've now been added back as laid out in the rest of this comment.
## Old Search Strategy
The old search strategy is [documented here][1]. Additionally Rust adds searching the child's paths (see also #37519). So the full list of paths that were searched was:
1. The directories that are listed in the child's `PATH` environment variable.
2. The directory from which the application loaded.
3. The current directory for the parent process.
4. The 32-bit Windows system directory.
5. The 16-bit Windows system directory.
6. The Windows directory.
7. The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable.
## New Search Strategy
The new strategy removes the current directory from the searched paths.
1. The directories that are listed in the child's PATH environment variable.
2. The directory from which the application loaded.
3. The 32-bit Windows system directory.
4. The Windows directory.
5. The directories that are listed in the parent's PATH environment variable.
Note that it also removes the 16-bit system directory, mostly because there isn't a function to get it. I do not anticipate this being an issue in modern Windows.
## Impact
Removing the current directory should fix CVE's like the one linked above. However, it's possible some Windows users of affected Rust CLI applications have come to expect the old behaviour.
This change could also affect small Windows-only script-like programs that assumed the current directory would be used. The user would need to use `.\file.exe` instead of the bare application name.
This PR could break tests, especially those that test the exact output of error messages (e.g. Cargo) as this does change the error messages is some cases.

Makes docs for references a little less confusing
- Make clear that the `Pointer` trait is related to formatting
- Make clear that the `Pointer` trait is implemented for references (previously it was confusing to first see that it's implemented and then see it in "expect")
- Make clear that `&T` (shared reference) implements `Send` (if `T: Send + Sync`)
std: Tweak expansion of thread-local const
This commit tweaks the expansion of `thread_local!` when combined with a
`const { ... }` value to help ensure that the rules which apply to
`const { ... }` blocks will be the same as when they're stabilized.
Previously with this invocation:
thread_local!(static NAME: Type = const { init_expr });
this would generate (on supporting platforms):
#[thread_local]
static NAME: Type = init_expr;
instead the macro now expands to:
const INIT_EXPR: Type = init_expr;
#[thread_local]
static NAME: Type = INIT_EXPR;
with the hope that because `init_expr` is defined as a `const` item then
it's not accidentally allowing more behavior than if it were put into a
`static`. For example on the stabilization issue [this example][ex] now
gives the same error both ways.

std: Get the standard library compiling for wasm64
This commit goes through and updates various `#[cfg]` as appropriate to
get the wasm64-unknown-unknown target behaving similarly to the
wasm32-unknown-unknown target. Most of this is just updating various
conditions for `target_arch = "wasm32"` to also account for `target_arch
= "wasm64"` where appropriate. This commit also lists `wasm64` as an
allow-listed architecture to not have the `restricted_std` feature
enabled, enabling experimentation with `-Z build-std` externally.
The main goal of this commit is to enable playing around with
`wasm64-unknown-unknown` externally via `-Z build-std` in a way that's
similar to the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target. These targets are
effectively the same and only differ in their pointer size, but wasm64
is much newer and has much less ecosystem/library support so it'll still
take time to get wasm64 fully-fledged.
Rename WASI's `is_character_device` to `is_char_device`.
Rename WASI's `FileTypeExt::is_character_device` to
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`, for consistency with the Unix
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`.
Also, add a `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function, for consistency with the
Unix `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function.

Stabilize `const_raw_ptr_deref` for `*const T`
This stabilizes dereferencing immutable raw pointers in const contexts.
It does not stabilize `*mut T` dereferencing. This is behind the
same feature gate as mutable references.

pub use core::simd;
A portable abstraction over SIMD has been a major pursuit in recent years for several programming languages. In Rust, `std::arch` offers explicit SIMD acceleration via compiler intrinsics, but it does so at the cost of having to individually maintain each and every single such API, and is almost completely `unsafe` to use. `core::simd` offers safe abstractions that are resolved to the appropriate SIMD instructions by LLVM during compilation, including scalar instructions if that is all that is available.
`core::simd` is enabled by the `#![portable_simd]` nightly feature tracked in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86656 and is introduced here by pulling in the https://github.com/rust-lang/portable-simd repository as a subtree. We built the repository out-of-tree to allow faster compilation and a stochastic test suite backed by the proptest crate to verify that different targets, features, and optimizations produce the same result, so that using this library does not introduce any surprises. As these tests are technically non-deterministic, and thus can introduce overly interesting Heisenbugs if included in the rustc CI, they are visible in the commit history of the subtree but do nothing here. Some tests **are** introduced via the documentation, but these use deterministic asserts.
There are multiple unsolved problems with the library at the current moment, including a want for better documentation, technical issues with LLVM scalarizing and lowering to libm, room for improvement for the APIs, and so far I have not added the necessary plumbing for allowing the more experimental or libm-dependent APIs to be used. However, I thought it would be prudent to open this for review in its current condition, as it is both usable and it is likely I am going to learn something else needs to be fixed when bors tries this out.
The major types are
- `core::simd::Simd<T, N>`
- `core::simd::Mask<T, N>`
There is also the `LaneCount` struct, which, together with the SimdElement and SupportedLaneCount traits, limit the implementation's maximum support to vectors we know will actually compile and provide supporting logic for bitmasks. I'm hoping to simplify at least some of these out of the way as the compiler and library evolve.
This enables programmers to use a safe alternative to the current
`extern "platform-intrinsics"` API for writing portable SIMD code.
This is `#![feature(portable_simd)]` as tracked in #86656
Rename WASI's `FileTypeExt::is_character_device` to
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`, for consistency with the Unix
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`.

Unix `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function.

ExitStatusExt). After all, it's a property of the ExitStatus type on
Unix.

exit is (conventionally) a library function, with _exit being the
actual system call.
I have checked the other references and they say "if the process
terminated by calling `exti`". I think despite the slight
imprecision (strictly, it should read iff ... `_exit`), this is
clearer. Anyone who knows about the distinction between `exit` and
`_exit` will not be confused.
`_exit` is the correct traditional name for the system call, despite
Linux calling it `exit_group` or `exit`:

Fix assertion failures in `OwnedHandle` with `windows_subsystem`.
As discussed in #88576, raw handle values in Windows can be null, such
as in `windows_subsystem` mode, or when consoles are detached from a
process. So, don't use `NonNull` to hold them, don't assert that they're
not null, and remove `OwnedHandle`'s `repr(transparent)`. Introduce a
new `HandleOrNull` type, similar to `HandleOrInvalid`, to cover the FFI
use case.

Only use `clone3` when needed for pidfd
In #89522 we learned that `clone3` is interacting poorly with Gentoo's
`sandbox` tool. We only need that for the unstable pidfd extensions, so
otherwise avoid that and use a normal `fork`.
This is a re-application of beta #89924, now that we're aware that we need
more than just a temporary release fix. I also reverted 12fbabd27f, as
that was just fallout from using `clone3` instead of `fork`.

Hashing does not have to use the whole Components parsing machinery because we only need it to match the
normalizations that Components does.
* stripping redundant separators -> skipping separators
* stripping redundant '.' directories -> skipping '.' following after a separator
That's all it takes.
And instead of hashing individual slices for each component we feed the bytes directly into the hasher which avoids
hashing the length of each component in addition to its contents.
Make `std:🧵:available_concurrency` support process-limited number of CPUs
Use `libc::sched_getaffinity` and count the number of CPUs in the returned mask. This handles cases where the process doesn't have access to all CPUs, such as when limited via `taskset` or similar.
This also covers cgroup cpusets.
This stabilizes dereferencing immutable raw pointers in const contexts.
It does not stabilize `*mut T` dereferencing. This is placed behind the
`const_raw_mut_ptr_deref` feature gate.
