Its a terrible idea to modify the return value of strerror() on any platform. strerror() can (and often does) return immutable string constants - don't try to modify that string even if it does end in trailing white-space (find another solution to that). This change only affects non-*nix builds since we were already doing the right thing for *nix.

Define a thread-safe/re-entrant version of strerror(): safe_strerror() which is just thin wrapper around strerror_s on Windows and strerror_r elsewhere.

we're at it.

nanosleep was interrupted by a signal and the SLEEP parameter is > 1.
Previously, any signal wuold abort SLEEP() prematurely. A SLEEP(1) (yield)
behaves the same as before since 1 is a special value where a short-sleep
duration is fine/expected on occasion.

Hopfully this doesn't break the Borland or Watcom (?!) builds.

the number of decimal places in the resulting string.

Created byte_estimate_to_str(), much like byte_count_to_str(), except the
byte count is rounded to the nearest tera/giga/mega/kilo-byte
(technically tebi/gibi/mebi/kibi-byte, but ugh, I'm old-sk00l!).

We need this for MSVC2013 and MSVC2017 builds.

then a clarifying or modifying word (year[s], month[s], day[s], etc.).
parse_byte_count() and parse_duration() now support a space between the
numeric value (decimal digits) and the modifier. Hopefully this doesn't break
anything, but it makes parse_duration() compatible with the strings generated
with duration_to_vstr(). We might want a verbose version of byte_count_to_str()
in the future, so I figured it made sense to go ahead and add the white-space
skipping/parsing to prase_byte_count() now.

of parse_byte_count() and parse_duration()) and use them in ini_file.c

(or possibly intervals) in seconds or fractions of a second. Supports
multipliers: (Y)ear, (W)eek, (D)ay, (H)our, and (M)inute.

rename to parse_byte_count(), so we can use it more places (e.g. jsexec).

Introduce ARCHITECTURE_DESC macro instead.

This will also change the JavaScript system.platform value for Linux64 systems.

Where we can't, try to use /dev/urandom if possible...

If that fails, start making stuff up...

At some point, the Win32 build should use CryptGenRandom() which is slightly
better on Windows NT/2K/XP and vastly better on Vista... not present on 9x
apparently though.
