Rich Felker 2412638bb3 add further ioctl time64 fallback conversions
this commit covers all remaining ioctls I'm aware of that use
time_t-derived types in their interfaces. it may still be incomplete,
and has undergone only minimal testing for a few commands used in
audio playback.

the SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR command is special-cased because, rather
than the whole structure expanding, it has two substructures each
padded to 64 bytes that expand within their own 64-byte reserved zone.
as long as it's the only one of its type, it doesn't really make sense
to make a general framework for it, but the existing table framework
is still used for the substructures in the special-case. one of the
substructures, snd_pcm_mmap_status, has a snd_pcm_uframes_t member
which is not a timestamp but is expanded just like one, to match the
64-bit-arch version of the structure. this is handled just like a
timestamp at offset 8, and is the motivation for the conversions table
holding offsets of individual values to be expanded rather than
timespec/timeval type pairs.

for some of the types, the size to which they expand is dependent on
whether the arch's ABI aligns 8-byte types on 8-byte boundaries.
new_req entries in the table need to reflect this size to get the
right ioctl request number that will match what callers pass, but we
don't have access to the actual structure type definitions here and
duplicating them would be cumbersome. instead, the new_misaligned
macro introduced here constructs an artificial object whose size is
the result of expanding a misaligned timespec/timeval to 64-bit and
imposing the arch's alignment on the result, which can be passed to
the _IO{R,W,WR} macros.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
