Adds Windows stub (still needs to be implemented on Windows),
adds WASI implementation, adds unit test testing basic chain of
ops: create file -> symlink -> readlink.
* `std.fs.Dir.Entry.Kind` is moved to `std.fs.File.Kind`
* `std.fs.File.Stat` gains the `kind` field, so performing a stat() on
a File now tells what kind of file it is. On Windows this only will
distinguish between directories and files.
* rework zig fmt logic so that in the case of opening a file and
discovering it to be a directory, it closes the file descriptor
before re-opening it with O_DIRECTORY, using fewer simultaneous open
file descriptors when walking a directory tree.
* rework zig fmt logic so that it pays attention to the kind of
directory entries, and when it sees a sub-directory it attempts to
open it as a directory rather than a file, reducing the number of
open() syscalls when walking a directory tree.
One of the main motivating use cases for this language feature is
tracing/profiling tools, which expect null-terminated strings for these
values. Since the data is statically allocated, making them
additionally null-terminated comes at no cost.
This prevents the requirement of compile-time code to convert to
null-termination, which could increase the compilation time of
code with tracing enabled.

std.log provides 8 log levels and corresponding logging functions. It
allows the user to override the logging "backend" by defining root.log
and to override the default log level by defining root.log_level.
Logging functions accept a scope parameter which allows the implementer
of the logging "backend" to filter logging by library as well as level.
Using the standardized syslog [1] log levels ensures that std.log will
be flexible enough to work for as many use-cases as possible. If we were
to stick with only 3/4 log levels, std.log would be insufficient for
large and/or complex projects such as a kernel or display server.

- stderr_file_writer was unused
- stderr_stream was a pointer to a stream, rather than a stream
- other functions assumed that getStderrStream has already been called
Start implementing https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/4917 which is to rename instream/outstream to reader/writer. This first change allows code to use Writer/writer instead of OutStream/outStream, but still maintains the old outstream names with "Deprecated" comments.
The AddressList returned can contain more than one item
e.g. the ipv4 and ipv6 addresses for a given hostname.
Previously if a server had multiple addresses but
was not listening on one of them Zig would give up
immediately.
Now on std.os.ConnectError.ConnectionRefused Zig will
try the next address in the list. Zig still gives up on
all other errors as they are related to the system and
system resources rather than whether the remote server
is listening on a particular address.
ERROR_DIRECTORY (267) is returned from kernel32.RemoveDirectoryW if the path is not a directory. Note also that os.DirectDirError already includes NotDir
Before: error.Unexpected: GetLastError(267): The directory name is invalid.
After: error: NotDir
