redbean improvements: - Explicitly disable corking - Simulate Python regex API for Lua - Send warmup requests in main process on startup - Add Class-A granular IPv4 network classification - Add /statusz page so you can monitor your redbean's health - Fix regressions on OpenBSD/NetBSD caused by recent changes - Plug Authorization header into Lua GetUser and GetPass APIs - Recognize X-Forwarded-{For,Host} from local reverse proxies - Add many additional functions to redbean Lua server page API - Report resource usage of child processes on `/` listing page - Introduce `-a` flag for logging child process resource usage - Introduce `-t MILLIS` flag and `ProgramTimeout(ms)` init API - Introduce `-H "Header: value"` flag and `ProgramHeader(k,v)` API Cosmopolitan Libc improvements: - Make strerror() simpler - Make inet_pton() not depend on sscanf() - Fix OpenExecutable() which broke .data section earlier - Fix stdio in cases where it overflows kernel tty buffer - Fix bugs in crash reporting w/o .com.dbg binary present - Add polyfills for SO_LINGER, SO_RCVTIMEO, and SO_SNDTIMEO - Polyfill TCP_CORK on BSD and XNU using TCP_NOPUSH magnums New netcat clone in examples/nc.c: While testing some of the failure conditions for redbean, I noticed that BusyBox's `nc` command is pretty busted, if you use it as an interactive tool, rather than having it be part of a pipeline. Unfortunately this'll only work on UNIX since Windows doesn't let us poll on stdio and sockets at the same time because I don't think they want tools like this running on their platform. So if you want forbidden fruit, it's here so enjoy it |

SYNOPSIS
System Five Import Libraries
OVERVIEW
Bell System Five is the umbrella term we use to describe Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Mac OS X which all have nearly-identical application binary interfaces that stood the test of time, having definitions nearly the same as those of AT&T back in the 1980's.
Cosmopolitan aims to help you build apps that can endure over the course of decades, just like these systems have: without needing to lift a finger for maintenance churn, broken builds, broken hearts.
The challenge to System V binary compatibility basically boils down to numbers. All these systems agree on what services are provided, but tend to grant them wildly different numbers.
We address this by putting all the numbers in a couple big shell scripts, ask the GNU Assembler to encode them into binaries using an efficient LEB128 encoding, unpacked by _init(), and ref'd via extern const. It gives us good debuggability, and any costs are gained back by fewer branches in wrapper functions.z
