50080a29f7 Remove the ___ hack.
Plain __ for generated syscalls didn't mean it was a hidden symbol, it
just meant "please don't use this". We added ___ to signify that a
hidden symbol should be generated, but then we added the map files
anyway so you now have to explicitly export symbols. Given that, this
convention serves no particular purpose so we may as well just use the
nicer names have everything look the same.

4d215aad85 Add POSIX fexecve.
I'm skeptical about the usefulness of this, but it's in POSIX, it's
in glibc (but not iOS), and it is used in some internal source (test
runners and container code).

Bug: N/A
Test: ran tests

2825f10b7f libc: Add O_PATH support for fgetxattr / fsetxattr
Support O_PATH file descriptors when handling fgetxattr and fsetxattr.
This avoids requiring file read access to pull extended attributes.

This is needed to support O_PATH file descriptors when calling
SELinux's fgetfilecon() call. In particular, this allows the querying
and setting of SELinux file context by using something like the following
code:

  int dirfd = open("/path/to/dir", O_DIRECTORY);
  int fd = openat(dirfd, "file", O_PATH | O_NOFOLLOW);
  char *context;
  fgetfilecon(fd, &context);

This change was motivated by a comment in
