Move declarations from libio/bits/stdio.h to existing

<title>C2x scanf binary constant handling</title>

C2x adds binary integer constants starting with 0b or 0B, and supports
those constants for the %i scanf format (in addition to the %b format,
which isn't yet implemented for scanf in glibc).  Implement that scanf
support for glibc.

As with the strtol support, this is incompatible with previous C
standard versions, in that such an input string starting with 0b or 0B
was previously required to be parsed as 0 (with the rest of the input
potentially matching subsequent parts of the scanf format string).
Thus this patch adds 12 new __isoc23_* functions per long double
format (12, 24 or 36 depending on how many long double formats the
glibc configuration supports), with appropriate header redirection
support (generally very closely following that for the __isoc99_*
scanf functions - note that __GLIBC_USE (DEPRECATED_SCANF) takes
precedence over __GLIBC_USE (C2X_STRTOL), so the case of GNU
extensions to C89 continues to get old-style GNU %a and does not get
this new feature).  The function names would remain as __isoc23_* even
if C2x ends up published in 2024 rather than 2023.

When scanf %b support is added, I think it will be appropriate for all
versions of scanf to follow C2x rules for inputs to the %b format
(given that there are no compatibility concerns for a new format).

Tested for x86_64 (full glibc testsuite).  The first version was also
tested for powerpc (32-bit) and powerpc64le (stdio-common/ and wcsmbs/
tests), and with build-many-glibcs.py.

<title>Apply asm redirections in stdio.h before first use [BZ #27087]</title>

Compilers may not be able to apply asm redirections to functions after
these functions are used for the first time, e.g. clang 13.
Fix [BZ #27087] by applying all long double-related asm redirections
before using functions in bits/stdio.h.
However, as these asm redirections depend on the declarations provided
by libio/bits/stdio2.h, this header was split in 2:

 - libio/bits/stdio2-decl.h contains all function declarations;
 - libio/bits/stdio2.h remains with the remaining contents, including
   redirections.

This also adds the access attribute to __vsnprintf_chk that was missing.

Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.

<title>Make sure that the fortified function conditionals are constant</title>

In _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3, the size expression may be non-constant,
resulting in branches in the inline functions remaining intact and
causing a tiny overhead.  Clang (and in future, gcc) make sure that
the -1 case is always safe, i.e. any comparison of the generated
expression with (size_t)-1 is always false so that bit is taken care
of.  The rest is avoidable since we want the _chk variant whenever we
have a size expression and it's not -1.

Rework the conditionals in a uniform way to clearly indicate two
conditions at compile time:

- Either the size is unknown (-1) or we know at compile time that the
  operation length is less than the object size.  We can call the
  original function in this case.  It could be that either the length,
  object size or both are non-constant, but the compiler, through
  range analysis, is able to fold the *comparison* to a constant.

- The size and length are known and the compiler can see at compile
  time that operation length &gt; object size.  This is valid grounds for
  a warning at compile time, followed by emitting the _chk variant.

For everything else, emit the _chk variant.

This simplifies most of the fortified function implementations and at
the same time, ensures that only one call from _chk or the regular
function is emitted.

<title>Don't add access size hints to fortifiable functions</title>

In the context of a function definition, the size hints imply that the
size of an object pointed to by one parameter is another parameter.
This doesn't make sense for the fortified versions of the functions
since that's the bit it's trying to validate.

This is harmless with __builtin_object_size since it has fairly simple
semantics when it comes to objects passed as function parameters.
With __builtin_dynamic_object_size we could (as my patchset for gcc[1]
already does) use the access attribute to determine the object size in
the general case but it misleads the fortified functions.

Basically the problem occurs when access attributes are present on
regular functions that have inline fortified definitions to generate
_chk variants; the attributes get inherited by these definitions,
causing problems when analyzing them.  For example with poll(fds, nfds,
timeout), nfds is hinted using the __attr_access as being the size of
fds.

Now, when analyzing the inline function definition in bits/poll2.h, the
compiler sees that nfds is the size of fds and tries to use that
information in the function body.  In _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 case, where the
object size could be a non-constant expression, this information results
in the conclusion that nfds is the size of fds, which defeats the
purpose of the implementation because we're trying to check here if nfds
does indeed represent the size of fds.  Hence for this case, it is best
to not have the access attribute.

With the attributes gone, the expression evaluation should get delayed
until the function is actually inlined into its destinations.

Disable the access attribute for fortified function inline functions
when building at _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 to make this work better.  The
access attributes remain for the _chk variants since they can be used
by the compiler to warn when the caller is passing invalid arguments.
