This patch implements the forwarding to frozen C++03 headers as
discussed in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-freezing-c-03-headers-in-libc. In the
RFC, we initially proposed selecting the right headers from the Clang
driver, however consensus seemed to steer towards handling this in the
library itself. This patch implements that direction.
At a high level, the changes basically amount to making each public
header look like this:
```
// inside <vector>
#ifdef _LIBCPP_CXX03_LANG
# include <__cxx03/vector>
#else
// normal <vector> content
#endif
```
In most cases, public headers are simple umbrella headers so there isn't
much code in the #else branch. In other cases, the #else branch contains
the actual implementation of the header.
Originally, we used __libcpp_verbose_abort to handle assertion failures.
That function was declared from all public headers. Since we don't use
that mechanism anymore, we don't need to declare __libcpp_verbose_abort
from all public headers, and we can clean up a lot of unnecessary
includes.
This patch also moves the definition of the various assertion categories
to the <__assert> header, since we now rely on regular IWYU for these
assertion macros.

In 2cea1babefbb, we removed the <setjmp.h> header provided by libc++. However, we did not conditionally include the underlying <setjmp.h>
header only if the C library provides one, which we otherwise do consistently (see e.g. 647ddc08f43c).

An issue I often see in codebases compiled for unusual platforms is
that header search paths are specified manually and are subtly wrong.
For example, people will manually add `-isystem <some-toolchain>/usr/include`,
which ends up messing up the layering of header search paths required by
libc++ (because the C Standard Library now appears *before* libc++ in
the search paths). Without this patch, this will end up causing
compilation errors that are pretty inscrutable. This patch aims to
improve the user experience by diagnosing this issue explicitly.
In all cases I can think of, I would expect that a compilation error
occur if these header search paths are not layered properly. This
should only provide an explicit diagnostic instead of failing due
to seemingly unrelated compilation errors.

This patch changes the requirement for getting the declaration of the
assertion handler from including <__assert> to including any public
C++ header of the library. Note that C compatibility headers are
excluded because we don't implement all the C headers ourselves --
some of them are taken straight from the C library, like assert.h.
It also adds a generated test to check it. Furthermore, this new
generated test is designed in a way that will make it possible to
replace almost all the existing test-generation scripts with this
system in upcoming patches.

We've stopped doing it in libc++ for a while now because these names
would end up rotting as we move things around and copy/paste stuff.
This cleans up all the existing files so as to stop the spreading
as people copy-paste headers around.
As discussed on cfe-dev [1], use the using_if_exists Clang attribute when
the compiler supports it. This makes it easier to port libc++ on top of
new platforms that don't fully support the C Standard library.
Previously, libc++ would fail to build when trying to import a missing
declaration in a <cXXXX> header. With the attribute, the declaration will
simply not be imported into namespace std, and hence it won't be available
for libc++ to use. In many cases, the declarations were *not* actually
required for libc++ to work (they were only surfaced for users to use
them as std::XXXX), so not importing them into namespace std is acceptable.
The same thing could be achieved by conscious usage of `#ifdef` along
with platform detection, however that quickly creates a maintenance
problem as libc++ is ported to new platforms. Furthermore, this problem
is exacerbated when mixed with vendor internal-only platforms, which can
lead to difficulties maintaining a downstream fork of the library.
For the time being, we only use the using_if_exists attribute when it
is supported. At some point in the future, we will start removing #ifdef
paths that are unnecessary when the attribute is supported, and folks
who need those #ifdef paths will be required to use a compiler that
supports the attribute.

to reflect the new license. These used slightly different spellings that
defeated my regular expressions.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.
