Improve cancellations, randomness, and time
- Exhaustively document cancellation points
- Rename SIGCANCEL to SIGTHR just like BSDs
- Further improve POSIX thread cancellations
- Ensure asynchronous cancellations work correctly
- Elevate the quality of getrandom() and getentropy()
- Make futexes cancel correctly on OpenBSD 6.x and 7.x
- Add reboot.com and shutdown.com to examples directory
- Remove underscore prefix from awesome timespec_*() APIs
- Create assertions that help verify our cancellation points
- Remove bad timespec APIs (cmp generalizes eq/ne/gt/gte/lt/lte)

Tidy up the threading implementation
The organization of the source files is now much more rational.
Old experiments that didn't work out are now deleted. Naming of
things like files is now more intuitive.

Improve quality of our ANSI C clock() function
It now works most excellently across all supported operating
sytsems (earlier it didn't work on NT and XNU). Demo code is
available in examples/clock.c and this change also adds some
of the newer ANSI C time functions like timespec_get(), plus
timespec_getres() which hasn't even come out yet as it's C23

Make pthread mutexes more scalable
pthread_mutex_lock() now uses a better algorithm which goes much faster
in multithreaded environments that have lock contention. This comes at
the cost of adding some fixed-cost overhead to mutex invocations. That
doesn't matter for Cosmopolitan because our core libraries all encode
locking operations as NOP instructions when in single-threaded mode.
Overhead only applies starting the moment you first call clone().
