This patch fixes an issue where the exit handler is not called for the
given process_t in case CreateProcessA() fails. This could, for example,
happen if the user tries to execute a binary that does not exist.

This patch removes a call to tor_assert_unreached() after execve()
failed. This assertion leads to the child process emitting a stack trace
on its standard output, which makes the error harder for the user to
demystify, since they think it is an internal error in Tor instead of
"just" being a "no such file or directory" error.
The process will now instead output "Error from child process: X" where
X is the stringified version of the errno value.

When processing a %included folder, a bug caused the pointer to
the last element of the options list to be set to NULL when
processing a file with only comments or whitepace. This could
cause options from other files on the same folder to be
discarded depending on the lines after the affected %include.
We used to do this on Windows only, but it appears to affect
multiple platforms when building with certain versions of GCC, and a
common pattern for defining the floating-point classifier functions.
Fixes part of 31687. I'm calling this a bugfux on 31687, when we
started suppressing these warnings on Windows.
Fixes assertion failure in tests on NetBSD:

When releasing OpenSSL patch-level maintenance updates,
we do not want to rebuild binaries using it.
And since they guarantee ABI stability, we do not have to.
Without this patch, warning messages were produced
that confused users:

Fixes bug 30190; bugfix on 0.2.4.2-alpha commit 7607ad2bec

Previously, our use of abort() would break anywhere that we didn't
include stdlib.h. This was especially troublesome in case where
tor_assert_nonfatal() was used with ALL_BUGS_ARE_FATAL, since that
one seldom gets tested.
As an alternative, we could have just made this header include
stdlib.h. But that seems bloaty.
Fixes bug 30189; bugfix on 0.3.4.1-alpha.
In current NSS versions, these ciphersuites don't work with
SSL_ExportKeyingMaterial(), which was causing relays to fail when
they tried to negotiate the v3 link protocol authentication.
Fixes bug 29241; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
This is just in case there is some rogue platform that uses a
nonstandard value for SEEK_*, and does not define that macro in
unistd.h. I think that's unlikely, but it's conceivable.
When NULL is given to lpApplicationName we enable Windows' "magical"
path interpretation logic, which makes Tor 0.4.x behave in the same way
as previous Tor versions did when it comes to executing binaries in
different system paths.
For more information about this have a look at the CreateProcessA()
documentation on MSDN -- especially the string interpretation example is
useful to understand this issue.
This bug was introduced in commit bfb94dd2ca.

There's an incorrect comment in compat_time.c that suggests we call
FreeLibrary() before we're done using the library's functions.
See 29642 for background.
Closes ticket 29643.
This module is currently implemented to use the same technique as
libottery (later used by the bsds' arc4random replacement), using
AES-CTR-256 as its underlying stream cipher. It's backtracking-
resistant immediately after each call, and prediction-resistant
after a while.
Here's how it works:
We generate psuedorandom bytes using AES-CTR-256. We generate BUFLEN bytes
at a time. When we do this, we keep the first SEED_LEN bytes as the key
and the IV for our next invocation of AES_CTR, and yield the remaining
BUFLEN - SEED_LEN bytes to the user as they invoke the PRNG. As we yield
bytes to the user, we clear them from the buffer.
Every RESEED_AFTER times we refill the buffer, we mix in an additional
SEED_LEN bytes from our strong PRNG into the seed.
If the user ever asks for a huge number of bytes at once, we pull SEED_LEN
bytes from the PRNG and use them with our stream cipher to fill the user's
request.
