Justine Tunney cc1920749e Add SSL to redbean
Your redbean can now interoperate with clients that require TLS crypto.
This is accomplished using a protocol polyglot that lets us distinguish
between HTTP and HTTPS regardless of the port number. Certificates will
be generated automatically, if none are supplied by the user. Footprint
increases by only a few hundred kb so redbean in MODY=tiny is now 1.0mb

- Add lseek() polyfills for ZIP executable
- Automatically polyfill /tmp/FOO paths on NT
- Fix readdir() / ftw() / nftw() bugs on Windows
- Introduce -B flag for slower SSL that's stronger
- Remove mbedtls features Cosmopolitan doesn't need
- Have base64 decoder support the uri-safe alternative
- Remove Truncated HMAC because it's forbidden by the IETF
- Add all the mbedtls test suites and make them go 3x faster
- Support opendir() / readdir() / closedir() on ZIP executable
- Use Everest for ECDHE-ECDSA because it's so good it's so good
- Add tinier implementation of sha1 since it's not worth the rom
- Add chi-square monte-carlo mean correlation tests for getrandom()
- Source entropy on Windows from the proper interface everyone uses

We're continuing to outperform NGINX and other servers on raw message
throughput. Using SSL means that instead of 1,000,000 qps you can get
around 300,000 qps. However redbean isn't as fast as NGINX yet at SSL
handshakes, since redbean can do 2,627 per second and NGINX does 4.3k

Right now, the SSL UX story works best if you give your redbean a key
signing key since that can be easily generated by openssl using a one
liner then redbean will do all the things that are impossibly hard to
do like signing ecdsa and rsa certificates that'll work in chrome. We
should integrate the let's encrypt acme protocol in the future.

SYNOPSIS

Cosmopolitan Standard Library.

OVERVIEW

This directory defines static archives defining functions, like printf(), mmap(), win32, etc. Please note that the Cosmopolitan build configuration doesn't link any C/C++ library dependencies by default, so you still have the flexibility to choose the one provided by your system. If you'd prefer Cosmopolitan, just add $(LIBC) and $(CRT) to your linker arguments.

Your library is compromised of many bite-sized static archives. We use the checkdeps tool to guarantee that the contents of the archives are organized in a logical way that's easy to use with or without our makefile infrastructure, since there's no cyclic dependencies.

The Cosmopolitan Library exports only the most stable canonical system calls for all supported operating systems, regardless of which platform is used for compilation. We polyfill many of the APIs, e.g. read(), write() so they work consistently everywhere while other apis, e.g. CreateWindowEx(), might only work on one platform, in which case they become no-op functions on others.

Cosmopolitan polyfill wrappers will usually use the dollar sign naming convention, so they may be bypassed when necessary. This same convention is used when multiple implementations of string library and other performance-critical function are provided to allow Cosmopolitan to go fast on both old and newer computers.

We take an approach to configuration that relies heavily on the compiler's dead code elimination pass (libc/dce.h). Most of the code is written so that, for example, folks not wanting support for OpenBSD can flip a bit in SUPPORT_VECTOR and that code will be omitted from the build. The same is true for builds that are tuned using -march=native which effectively asks the library to not include runtime support hooks for x86 processors older than what you use.

Please note that, unlike Cygwin or MinGW, Cosmopolitan does not achieve broad support by bolting on a POSIX emulation layer. We do nothing more than (in most cases) stateless API translations that get you 90% of the way there in a fast lightweight manner. We therefore can't address some of the subtle differences, such as the nuances of absolute paths on Windows. Our approach could be compared to something more along the lines of, "the Russians just used a pencil to write in space", versus spending millions researching a pen like NASA.
