It is now composed of these main sections:
* Declarations that are shared among all operating systems.
* Declarations that have the same name, but different type signatures
depending on the operating system. Often multiple operating systems
share the same type signatures however.
* Declarations that are specific to a single operating system.
- These are imported one per line so you can see where they come from,
protected by a comptime block to prevent accessing the wrong one.
Closes#19352 by changing the convention to making types `void` and
functions `{}`, so that it becomes possible to update `@hasDecl` sites
to use `@TypeOf(f) != void` or `T != void`. Happily, this ended up
removing some duplicate logic and update some bitrotted feature
detection checks.
A handful of types have been modified to gain namespacing and type
safety. This is a breaking change.
Oh, and the last usage of `usingnamespace` site is eliminated.
On Windows, the console mode flag `ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING` determines whether or not ANSI escape codes are parsed/acted on. On the newer Windows Terminal, this flag is set by default, but on the older Windows Console, it is not set by default, but *can* be enabled (since Windows 10 RS1 from June 2016).
The new `File.getOrEnableAnsiEscapeSupport` function will get the current status of ANSI escape code support, but will also attempt to enable `ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING` on Windows if necessary which will provide better/more consistent results for things like `std.Progress` and `std.io.tty`.
This type of change was not done previously due to a mistaken assumption (on my part) that the console mode would persist after the run of a program. However, it turns out that the console mode is always reset to the default for each program run in a console session.
* Newer versions of Windows added VT seq support not only in Windows Terminal, but also in the old-fashioned Windows Console (standalone conhost.exe), though not enabled by default.
* Try setting the newer console mode flags provides better experience for Windows Console users.

Windows paths now use WTF-16 <-> WTF-8 conversion everywhere, which is lossless. Previously, conversion of ill-formed UTF-16 paths would either fail or invoke illegal behavior.
WASI paths must be valid UTF-8, and the relevant function calls have been updated to handle the possibility of failure due to paths not being encoded/encodable as valid UTF-8.

Encountered in a recent CI run on an aarch64-windows dev kit.
Pretty sure I disabled the virus scanner but it looks like it turned
itself back on with a Windows Update.
Rather than marking the new error code as unreachable in the places
where it is unexpected, this commit makes it return `error.Unexpected`.
* std.c: consolidate some definitions, making them share code. For
example, freebsd, dragonfly, and openbsd can all share the same
`pthread_mutex_t` definition.
* add type safety to std.c.O
- this caught a bug where mode flags were incorrectly passed as the
open flags.
* 3 fewer uses of usingnamespace keyword
* as per convention, remove purposeless field prefixes from struct field
names even if they have those prefixes in the corresponding C code.
* fix incorrect wasi libc Stat definition
* remove C definitions from incorrectly being in std.os.wasi
* make std.os.wasi definitions type safe
* go through wasi native APIs even when linking libc because the libc
APIs are problematic and wasteful
* don't expose WASI definitions in std.posix
* remove std.os.wasi.rights_t.ALL: this is a footgun. should it be all
future rights too? or only all current rights known? both are
the wrong answer.
ctime is last file status/metadata change, not creation time. Note that this mistake was not made in the `File.metadata`/`File.Metadata` implementation, which allows getting the actual creation time.
Closes#18290
Requires an extra NtQueryInformationFile call when FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT is set to determine if it's actually a symlink or some other kind of reparse point (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/reparse-point-tags). This is something that `File.Metadata.kind` was already doing, so the same technique is used in `stat`.
Also, replace the std.os.windows.DeviceIoControl call in `metadata` with NtQueryInformationFile (NtQueryInformationFile is what gets called during kernel32.GetFileInformationByHandleEx with FileAttributeTagInfo, verified using NtTrace).
