The file is simple list of signal names and trivial function to search
in the list. We do not need any extra license here and as public
domain it will be more portable to other tools (GPL and BSD) in the
util-linux.

This allows the rest of the programs using cap_last_cap to trust the
value returned by it, since it will either be obtained from procfs
(straight from kernel) or with prctl.
Also checked if the file under /proc is actually mounted in a procfs.
As mentioned in 'Generating optimal glyphs' title in the manual page
mentioned in reference:
Where a proper caret (^) that renders well in both a terminal and PDF is
required, use "\(ha".
Using a naked "~" character results in a poor rendering in PDF. Instead
use "\(ti".

* 'vipw-shortwrite' of https://github.com/DankRank/util-linux:
ul_copy_file: make defines for return values
read_all: return 0 when EOF occurs after 0 bytes
ul_copy_file: add test program
ul_copy_file: handle EAGAIN and EINTR
ul_copy_file: use all_read/all_write
ul_copy_file: use BUFSSIZ for buffer size
nologin: use ul_copy_file
login: use ul_copy_file
configure.ac: check for sendfile
ul_copy_file: use sendfile
vipw: move copyfile to the lib
vipw: fix short write handling in copyfile
I did this by implementing a function called sendfile_all() similar to
read_all()/write_all().
The manpage for sendfile doesn't mention EINTR, but I decided to check
it anyway, just in case.

If a libuuid application is unable to access /dev/random or /dev/urandom
then uuid generation by uuid_generate falls back to uuid_generate_time.
This could happen in chroot or container environments.
The function ul_random_get_bytes from lib/randutils.c uses getrandom if
it is available. This could either mean that the libuuid application
skips good random bytes because the character special files do not exist
or the application trusts in good random bytes just because these files
are accessible but not necessarily usable, e.g. limit of open file
descriptors reached, lack of data, kernel without getrandom, etc.
This commit modifies ul_random_get_bytes to return an integer which
indicates if random bytes are of good quality (0) or not (1). Callers
can decide based on this information if they want to discard the random
bytes. Only libuuid checks the return value. I decided to return 1
instead of -1 because -1 feels more like an error, but weak random bytes
can be totally fine.
Another issue is that getrandom sets errno to specific values only in
case of an error, i.e. with return value -1. Set errno to 0 explicitly
if getrandom succeeds so we do not enter the fallback routine for
ENOSYS by mistake. I do not think that this is likely to happen, but it
really depends on possible wrapper function supplied by a C library.

There is quite some value (in terms of readability and user
expectations) if consistent names are used for the sections
within manual pages. This patch is one of a series to bring
about this consistency.
Currently we have EXAMPLE (10) or EXAMPLES (23).
Let's standardize on the EXAMPLE (which is also what is
suggested in man-pages(7)) and used consistently across
a large number of pages in the Linux man-pages project.
(I realize the choice to go EXAMPLE, rather than EXAMPLES,
may be debatable. If necessary, I'd write a patch that instead
goes the other way, but I'd prefer to follow man-pages(7).)

Using double quotes in .SH lines containing multiple words is unneeded,
and in any case is not consistently done in the util-linux manual pages,
where double quotes are used in only around half of the cases.
(This usage was long ago elminated in the man-pages project, with
no ill effects reported to date.)
Remove these quotes, so that .SH lines are more uniform, in preparation
for some (more easily) scripted doiscovery of consistency problems in
(and possibly global fixes to) the manual pages.
Other than stripping the double quotes, this patch makes no changes to
the content of the manual pages.

Lsblk throws the following error for nvmeNcXnY devices.
lsblk: nvme1c1n1: unknown device name
This is because nvmeNcXnY devices are hidden and do not have
the file /sys/block/<nvmeNcXnY>/dev.
Following patch was added
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/util-linux/util-linux.git/commit/?id=d51f05bfecb299a830897106460bf395be440c0a
Which made lsblk read from /sys/block/<nvmeNcXnY>/device/dev
which do exist for nvmeNcXnY devices.
After the above patch, the unknown error goes away.
However, another error is encountered in the very next step.
nvme1c1n1: failed to initialize sysfs handler
This is because lsblk looks for /sys/dev/block/242:1
(nvmeNcXnY major:minor) pathname which usually exists for other
block devices but not for the nvmeNcXnY devices as they are hidden.
Below patch does not even print this error for hidden devices
and exits silently.
