musl - an implementation of the standard library for Linux-based systems

Petr Hosek 2f853dd6b9 support out-of-tree build
this change adds support for building musl outside of the source
tree. the implementation is similar to autotools where running
configure in a different directory creates config.mak in the current
working directory and symlinks the makefile, which contains the
logic for creating all necessary directories and resolving paths
relative to the source directory.

to support both in-tree and out-of-tree builds with implicit make
rules, all object files are now placed into a separate directory.

    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
the project website:
