- 10.5% reduction of o//depend dependency graph
- 8.8% reduction in latency of make command
- Fix issue with temporary file cleanup

There's a new -w option in compile.com that turns off the recent
Landlock output path workaround for "good commands" which do not
unlink() the output file like GNU tooling does.

Our new GNU Make unveil sandboxing appears to have zero overhead
in the grand scheme of things. Full builds are pretty fast since
the only thing that's actually slowed us down is probably libcxx

    make -j16 MODE=rel
    RL: took 85,732,063µs wall time
    RL: ballooned to 323,612kb in size
    RL: needed 828,560,521µs cpu (11% kernel)
    RL: caused 39,080,670 page faults (99% memcpy)
    RL: 350,073 context switches (72% consensual)
    RL: performed 0 reads and 11,494,960 write i/o operations

pledge() and unveil() no longer consider ENOSYS to be an error.
These functions have also been added to Python's cosmo module.

This change also removes some WIN32 APIs and System Five magnums
which we're not using and it's doubtful anyone else would be too

DESCRIPTION

  plinko is a simple lisp interpreter that takes advantage of advanced
  operating system features irrespective of their practicality such as
  using the nsa instruction popcount for mark sweep garbage collection
  overcommit memory, segment registers, and other dirty hacks that the
  popular interpreters cannot do; this lets plinko gain a considerable
  performance edge while retaining an event greater edge in simplicity

  We hope you find these sources informative, educational, and possibly
  useful too. Lisp source code, written in its dialect is included too
  under //tool/plinko/lib and unit tests which clarify their usage can
  be found in //test/tool/plinko.
