<title>stdlib: Make getenv thread-safe in more cases</title>

Async-signal-safety is preserved, too.  In fact, getenv is fully
reentrant and can be called from the malloc call in setenv
(if a replacement malloc uses getenv during its initialization).

This is relatively easy to implement because even before this change,
setenv, unsetenv, clearenv, putenv do not deallocate the environment
strings themselves as they are removed from the environment.

The main changes are:

* Use release stores for environment array updates, following
  the usual pattern for safely publishing immutable data
  (in this case, the environment strings).

* Do not deallocate the environment array.  Instead, keep older
  versions around and adopt an  exponential resizing policy.  This
  results in an amortized constant space leak per active environment
  variable, but there already is such a leak for the variable itself
  (and that is even length-dependent, and includes no-longer used
  values).

* Add a seqlock-like mechanism to retry getenv if a concurrent
  unsetenv is observed.  Without that, it is possible that
  getenv returns NULL for a variable that is never unset.  This
  is visible on some AArch64 implementations with the newly
  added stdlib/tst-getenv-unsetenv test case.  The mechanism
  is not a pure seqlock because it tolerates one write from
  unsetenv.  This avoids the need for a second copy of the
  environ array that getenv can read from a signal handler
  that happens to interrupt an unsetenv call.

No manual updates are included with this patch because environ
usage with execve, posix_spawn, system is still not thread-safe
relative unsetenv.  The new process may end up with an environment
that misses entries that were never unset.  This is the same issue
described above for getenv.

I used these shell commands:

../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc &amp;&amp; git commit -am"[this commit message]")

and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah.  I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

remote: *** 913:

This patch was automatically generated by running the following shell
script, which uses GNU sed, and which avoids modifying files imported
from upstream:

and then by running 'make dist-prepare' to regenerate files built
from the altered files, and then executing the following to cleanup:
