This was triggered by gcc for some reason It included sys/types.h and
assumed sys/select.h to be there. And that seams to be the case in musl.

The problem with relibc here is that sys/types.h is are part of relibc
"include/*.h" files, while sys/select.h is generated by cbindgen. That
makes it impossible to #include select.h in types.h epsecially that
there are files like fcntl.c that uses types.h. They would complain
about missing headers. I fixed this by renaming sys/types.h to
sys/types_internal.h and then generating types.h using cbindgen as well
except for that. however fcntl and dlmalloc can include types_internal
instead of types.h

The problem here is that _Bool type is not defined in C++ yet this file
is using it. That leads to issues when compiling gcc. I borrowed the
same techniques used in other stdbool.h

netdb: implement getnetbynane and getnetent

See merge request redox-os/relibc!278

This patch implements getnetbyname and getnetent functions.

Scanf

See merge request redox-os/relibc!277

This is the behavior of glibc which I assume to be right

The LookAheadReader api works similar to read but it has 2 methods,
lookahead: it will read 1 byte (with internal ftell) without modifying
the file's own ftell() and commit() which saves the current file ftell

LookAheadReader can wrap both buffers and files

Ld library path

See merge request redox-os/relibc!275

During early parts of ld.so, errno and other thread local variables are
not yet initialized so we cannot use function (such as unistd::access)
that depends on such thread local variables (errno). For this reason
this patch creates small wrapper around the syscall that doesn't not
touch the errno

Current LD_LIBRARY_PATH implementation overwrites the original search
path, which is not the best idea, instead this patch would check
LD_LIBRARY_PATH first and if it didn't find the libraries it is looking
for, then it will search the original search path

as it seams you can do something like
        printf ("A%*s%s/\n", -5, "B", "CC");
and it will print the padding to the left

Scanf function requires look ahead to function properly, In case of
scanning from a buffer that will not be an issue, but in our case we are
reading from file, so lookaheads needs to be undone (via lseek) in our
case. The only problem here is that if we opened a file that doesn't
support lseek such as many of the file /dev/*

At least in relibc, each call to ungetc should decrement ftell() by one
also allowing negative ftell() this is not possible on relibc thus gcc
failing to compile (gcc compiles tools that is later used to compile gcc
itself and these tools are the ones that fail)
