std.crypto: add constant-time codecs
Add constant-time hex/base64 codecs designed to process cryptographic
secrets, adapted from libsodium's implementations.
Introduce a `crypto.codecs` namespace for crypto-related encoders and
decoders. Move ASN.1 codecs to this namespace.
This will also naturally accommodate the proposed PEM codecs.
This lays the groundwork for #2879. This library will be built and linked when a
static libc is going to be linked into the compilation. Currently, that means
musl, wasi-libc, and MinGW-w64. As a demonstration, this commit removes the musl
C code for a few string functions and implements them in libzigc. This means
that those libzigc functions are now load-bearing for musl and wasi-libc.
Note that if a function has an implementation in compiler-rt already, libzigc
should not implement it. Instead, as we recently did for memcpy/memmove, we
should delete the libc copy and rely on the compiler-rt implementation.
I repurposed the existing "universal libc" code to do this. That code hadn't
seen development beyond basic string functions in years, and was only usable-ish
on freestanding. I think that if we want to seriously pursue the idea of Zig
providing a freestanding libc, we should do so only after defining clear goals
(and non-goals) for it. See also #22240 for a similar case.
The code was using u32 and usize interchangably, which doesn't work on
64-bit systems. This:
`pub const sigset_t = [1024 / 32]u32;`
is not consistent with this:
`const shift = @as(u5, @intCast(s & (usize_bits - 1)));`
However, normal signal numbers are less than 31, so the bad math doesn't matter much. Also, despite support for 1024 signals in the set, only setting signals between 1 and NSIG (which is mostly 65, but sometimes 128) is defined. The existing tests only exercised signal numbers in the first 31 bits so they didn't trip over this:
The C library `sigaddset` will return `EINVAL` if given an out of bounds signal number. I made the Zig code just silently ignore any out of bounds signal numbers.
Moved all the `sigset` related declarations next to each in the source, too.
The `filled_sigset` seems non-standard to me. I think it is meant to be used like `empty_sigset`, but it only contains 31 set signals, which seems wrong (should be 64 or 128, aka `NSIG`). It's also unused. The oddly named but similar `all_mask` is used (by posix.zig) but sets all 1024 bits (which I understood to be undefined behavior but seems to work just fine). For comparison the musl `sigfillset` fills in 65 bits or 128 bits.
