We almost always want to skip leading whitespace in time
formats, so make tmparse just do it. This fixes upas mbox
parsing, which leaves a leading whitespace at the start of
the date.
The current date and time APIs on Plan 9 are not good. They're
inflexible, non-threadsafe, and don't expose timezone information.
This commit adds new time APIs that allow parsing arbitrary
dates, work from multiple threads, and can handle timezones
effectively.
this breaks the sample from the seconds manpage, and overall
produces funky results. this needs alot more testing.
term% seconds '23 may 2011'
seconds: tmparse: invalid date 23 may 2011 near 'may 2011'
term% seconds '2019-01-01 00:00:00'

Redo date handling in libc almost entirely. This allows
handling dates and times from outside your timezones,
fixes timezone loading in multithreaded applications,
and allows parsing and formatting using custom format
strings.
As a test of the APIs, we replace the formatting code in
seconds(1), shrinking it massively.
The last commit missed a few removals, and made it
unnecessarily hard to do an update.

Added a ver= field to the filter to distinguish the ip version.
By default, a filter is parsed as ipv6, and after parsing
proto, src and dst fields are converted to ipv4. When no
ver= field is specified, a ip version filter is implicitely
added and both protocols are parsed.
This change also gets rid of the fast compare types as the
filed might not be aligned correctly in the packet.
This also fixes the ifc= filter, as we have to check any
local address.
The new command marks the target window as a scratch window -- a window
whose state cannot be "dirtied" by changes made to its body, therefore
avoiding warnings about unsaved changes when deleting the window or
exiting acme.
Existing examples of scratch windows are error, directory, and guide
windows, whose scratchness is set internally.
With the new command users and programs alike can create their own
scratch windows. This is put to use in acme's own win(1).
This makes the flagfmt parser more robust and accepting
a looser input language — namely by allowing whitespace
around specifier fields and ignoring any empty fields.
Long flagfmts can thus be pleasingly displayed:
flagfmt='
a, b, c, C:cache,
m:mtpt mountpoint,
s:srvn srvname'
Fix inconsistencies between programs and their usage
messages, correct instances where information seems
to be missing or lost. This includes missing arguments,
making usage consistent with manuals, and so on.
with the latest changes to shr(3), we can use ORCLOSE on
the control file to get the mount in the share automatically
removed when the server exits or something goes wrong during
postsharesrv().
do not expose postfd() and sharefd() functions. they where
undocumented and leak the control file descriptors.
with the -s flag, we should read 9P messages from
standard *INPUT* (fd 0) and write responses to
standard *OUTPUT* (fd 1).
before these servers where reading from fd 1,
assuming they where both the same files.
it is unclear how Srv.nopipe flag should work inside
postmountserv(). if a server wants to serve on stdio
descriptors, he can just call srv() after initializing
Srv.infd and Srv.outfd.
The Srv.leavefdsopen hack can be removed now that acme
win has been fixed.
