The LibELF validate_program_headers method tried to do too many things
at once, and as a result, we had an awkward return type from it.
To be able to simplify it, we no longer allow passing a StringBuilder*
but instead we require to pass an Optional<Elf_Phdr> by reference so
it could be filled with actual ELF program header that corresponds to
an INTERP header if such found.
As a result, we ensure that only certain implementations that actually
care about the ELF interpreter path will actually try to load it on
their own and if they fail, they can have better diagnostics for an
invalid INTERP header.
This change also fixes a bug that on which we failed to execute an ELF
program if the INTERP header is located outside the first 4KiB page of
the ELF file, as the kernel previously didn't have support for looking
beyond that for that header.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

This commit moves the implementation of getopt into AK, and converts its
API to understand and use StringView instead of char*.
Everything else is caught in the crossfire of making
Option::accept_value() take a StringView instead of a char const*.
With this, we must now pass a Span<StringView> to ArgsParser::parse(),
applications using LibMain are unaffected, but anything not using that
or taking its own argc/argv has to construct a Vector<StringView> for
this method.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
StringView was used where possible. Some utilities still use libc
functions which expect null-terminated strings, so String objects were
used there instead.
This fixes readelf failing to map the interpreter for dynamic
libraries. When an ELF does not have the PT_INTERP header the
StringView will be of the inline capacity of the StringBuilder, not a
null StringView. This would cause readelf not to fallback on the
default interpreter path.
A copy of the same mapping was found both in LibELF and in the readelf
utility, which uses LibELF; keeping them both is redundant and removing
the duplicate saves (a bit of) space.
Depending on the values it might be difficult to figure out whether a
value is decimal or hexadecimal. So let's make this more obvious. Also
this allows copying and pasting those numbers into GNOME calculator and
probably also other apps which auto-detect the base.
By constraining two implementations, the compiler will select the best
fitting one. All this will require is duplicating the implementation and
simplifying for the `void` case.
This constraining also informs both the caller and compiler by passing
the callback parameter types as part of the constraint
(e.g.: `IterationFunction<int>`).
Some `for_each` functions in LibELF only take functions which return
`void`. This is a minimal correctness check, as it removes one way for a
function to incompletely do something.
There seems to be a possible idiom where inside a lambda, a `return;` is
the same as `continue;` in a for-loop.
This implements more of the dlfcn functionality. Most notably:
* It's now possible to dlopen() libraries which were already
loaded at program startup time. This does not cause those
libraries to be loaded twice.
* Errors are reported via dlerror() rather than by crashing
the program.
* Calls to the dl*() functions are thread-safe.

According to the Single UNIX Specification, Version 2 that's where
those macros should be defined. This fixes the libiconv port.
This also fixes some (but not all) build errors for the diffutils and nano ports.
