Remove __need_IOV_MAX and __need_FOPEN_MAX.
__need_FOPEN_MAX wasn't being used anywhere. __need_IOV_MAX was more
complicated; the basic deal is that sys/uio.h wants to define a
constant named UIO_MAXIOV and bits/xopen_lim.h wants to define a
constant named IOV_MAX, with the same meaning. For no apparent reason
this was being handled via bits/stdio_lim.h -- stdio.h is NOT supposed
to define IOV_MAX -- and some mess in Makerules. Also, bits/uio.h on
Linux was being used as a dumping ground for extension functions.
So now we have bits/uio_lim.h, which defines __IOV_MAX.
bits/xopen_lim.h and sys/uio.h use that to define their respective
constants. We also now have bits/uio-ext.h, which is the official
Proper Home for extensions to sys/uio.h. bits/uio.h is removed, and
stdio_lim.h doesn't define IOV_MAX at all.
* bits/uio_lim.h, sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/uio_lim.h
* bits/uio-ext.h, sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/uio-ext.h: New file.
* bits/uio.h, sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/uio.h: Delete file.
* include/bits/xopen_lim.h: Use bits/uio_lim.h to get the value
for IOV_MAX.
* misc/Makefile: Install bits/uio-ext.h and bits/uio_lim.h.
Don't install bits/uio.h.
* misc/sys/uio.h: Don't include bits/uio.h. Do include
bits/types/struct_iovec.h and bits/uio_lim.h. Set UIO_MAXIOV
based on __IOV_MAX. Under __USE_GNU, also include bits/uio-ext.h.
* stdio-common/stdio_lim.h.in: Remove logic for __need_FOPEN_MAX
and __need_IOV_MAX. Don't define IOV_MAX at all.
* Makerules (stdio_lim.h): Remove logic for setting IOV_MAX.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/fcntl-linux.h:
Include bits/types/struct_iovec.h, not bits/uio.h.
Use __ssize_t, not ssize_t, in function prototypes.
Don't use hard TAB for double space after period in comments.
