`isAlNum` and `isAlpha`:
1. I think these names are a bit cryptic.
2. `isAlpha` is a bit ambiguous: is it alpha*numeric* or alpha*betic*?
This is why I renamed `isAlpha` to `isAlphabetic`.
3. For consistency and because `isAlNum` looks weird, I renamed it to `isAlphanumeric`.
`isCntrl`:
1. It's cryptic and hard to find when you look for it.
2. We don't save a lot of space writing it this way.
3. It's closer to the name of the `control_code` struct.
`isSpace`:
1. The name is ambiguous and misleading.
`spaces`:
1. Ditto
`isXDigit`:
1. The name is extremely cryptic.
2. The function is very hard to find by its name.
I think `isBlank` and `isWhitespace` are quite confusable.
What `isBlank` does is so simple that you can just do the `c == ' ' or c == '\t'`
check yourself but in a lot of cases you don't even want that.
`std.ascii` can't really know what you think "blank" means.
That's why I think it's better to remove it.
And again, it seems ambiguous considering that we have `isWhitespace`.
Next, it also deprecates `isGraph`.
It's the same as `isPrint(c) and c != ' '`, which I find confusing.
When something is printable, you can say it also has a *graph*ical representation.
Removing `isGraph` solves this possible confusion.
POSIX specifies that the sa_handler field of the sigaction struct may
be set to SIG_IGN or SIG_DFL. However, the current constants in the
standard library use the function pointer signature corresponding to
the sa_sigaction field instead.
This may not cause issues in practice because the fields usually occupy
the same memory in a union, but this isn't required by POSIX and there
may be systems we do not yet support that do this differently.
Fixing this also makes the Zig interface less confusing to use after
reading the man page.
stage2 was adding bogus error return trace frames when an error was not
being returned. This commit makes several improvements:
* Make a runtime check if necessary to only emit a frame into the error
return trace when an actual error is returned.
* Use the `analyzeIsNonErrComptimeOnly` machinery to avoid runtime
checks when it is compile-time-known that the value is an error, or a
non-error.
* Make std.builtin.returnError take a non-optional stack trace pointer.

This new search placeholder looks much nicer because it allows HTML inside it which
the `placeholder` attribute on `<input>`s doesn't allow.
I tested it for all kinds of cases and it seems to work pretty well.
"Dialog" is the incorrect term here because a dialog is a separate window that still lets you use the app
but a modal is a window where you can't continue using the app until you close it.
