New POSIX APIs

Hi

Looks like a set of new APIs are coming to POSIX. See

https://www.opengroup.org/austin/docs/austin_1110.pdf

and search for "+" for added lines. Some are text changes and others
are API additions. Some like strlcat() have been around for ages. Others
are new.

I have not and likely will not soon make it through this document to
make a list of the new APIs. This list would then need to be checked
against RTEMS and newlib. It is clear we are missing an entire class
of new concurrency methods. There are ones like pthread_cond_clockwait()
for many (all?) concurrency primitives.

Should I file a ticket for someone to do the assessment of what was added?
