Instead of looking for Object::ENV (which can be overwritten),
directly look for the envtbl variable. As that is static in hash.c,
and the lookup code is in process.c, add a couple non-static
functions that will return envtbl (or envtbl#to_hash).

All occurrences of rb_fork_ruby are followed by a call rb_thread_fork in
the created child process.
This is refactoring and a potential preparation for [Feature #17795].
(rb_fork_ruby may be wrapped by Process._fork_.)
* Rename `rb_scheduler` to `rb_fiber_scheduler`.
* Use public interface if available.
* Use `rb_check_funcall` where possible.
* Don't use `unblock` unless the fiber was non-blocking.
* revert `rb_last_status_set`
* renamed the new function as `rb_process_status_new`
* `rb_process_status_new` always freezes the return value
* marked `Process::Status.wait` as EXPERIMENTAL, as it has not
been discussed totally yet.
getaddrinfo_a() gets stuck after fork().
To avoid this, we need 1 second sleep to wait for internal
worker threads of getaddrinfo_a() to be finished, but that is unacceptable.
[Bug #17220] [Feature #17134] [Feature #17187]
Previously, rb_getaddrinfo_a_before_exec() is called from before_exec().
However, the function needs to be called only before fork().
The change moves it to before_fork().
We need stop worker threads in getaddrinfo_a() before fork().
This change adds a hook before fork() that cancel all outstanding requests
and wait for all ongoing requests. Then, it waits for all worker
threads to be finished.

To make some kind of Ractor related extensions, some functions
should be exposed.
* include/ruby/thread_native.h
* rb_native_mutex_*
* rb_native_cond_*
* include/ruby/ractor.h
* RB_OBJ_SHAREABLE_P(obj)
* rb_ractor_shareable_p(obj)
* rb_ractor_std*()
* rb_cRactor
and rm ractor_pub.h
and rename srcdir/ractor.h to srcdir/ractor_core.h
(to avoid conflict with include/ruby/ractor.h)
This commit introduces Ractor mechanism to run Ruby program in
parallel. See doc/ractor.md for more details about Ractor.
See ticket [Feature #17100] to see the implementation details
and discussions.
[Feature #17100]
This commit does not complete the implementation. You can find
many bugs on using Ractor. Also the specification will be changed
so that this feature is experimental. You will see a warning when
you make the first Ractor with `Ractor.new`.
I hope this feature can help programmers from thread-safety issues.
Not every compilers understand that rb_raise does not return. When a
function does not end with a return statement, such compilers can issue
warnings. We would better tell them about reachabilities.
Allow the 'Dir.home' method to reliably locate the user's home directory when
all three of the following are true at the same time:
1. Ruby is running on a Unix-like OS
2. The $HOME environment variable is not set
3. The process is not a descendant of login(1) (or a work-alike)
The prior behavior was that the lookup could only work for login-descended
processes.
This is accomplished by looking up the user's record in the password database
by uid (getpwuid_r(3)) as a fallback to the lookup by name (getpwname_r(3))
which is still attempted first (based on the name, if any, returned by
getlogin_r(3)).
If getlogin_r(3), getpwnam_r(3), and/or getpwuid_r(3) is not available at
compile time, will fallback on using their respective non-*_r() variants:
getlogin(3), getpwnam(3), and/or getpwuid(3).
The rationale for attempting to do the lookup by name prior to doing it by uid
is to accommodate the possibility of multiple login names (each with its own
record in the password database, so each with a potentially different home
directory) being mapped to the same uid (as is explicitly allowed for by
POSIX; see getlogin(3posix)).
Preserves the existing behavior for login-descended processes, and adds the
new capability of having Dir.home being able to find the user's home directory
for non-login-descended processes.
