When 'notify_read_ready()' is called during 'select()' and fails,
suspending can cause a deadlock when the libc IO response handler becomes
active and calls 'select_notify()', which tries to acquire the
'select callback list lock', which is already acquired by the suspended
'select()' call.
It seems possible to ignore a failed 'notify_read_ready()' call instead of
suspending. When the VFS plugin calls the IO handler later when the
notification request can be processed, the 'select_notify()' call of the
libc IO response handler will eventually call 'notify_read_ready()' again.
Fixes#2970
Implement the passwd database subroutines with single-user database.
This database is populated with a <passwd/> sub-node of the libc
configuration node. All fields of the "passwd" struct may be specified
with reasonable defaults provided for a "root" user. This allows a
libc-based component to spoof user information for the sake of porting
existing Unix software.
A test is provided at run/libc_getpwent.
Fix#2919
GNU tar interprets the passed time value in local time by default, which
lead to unstable hashes again. So, now provide a complete date/time
value incl. time zone.

The VFS server does not support file-system with one single-file plugin
providing the root. This is because the "leaf_path" is not universally
implemented to handle the path "/". This fix is simply to skip a
"leaf_path" check when opening the path "/".
Ref #2919
Rather than removing the source files during the port preration, which
breaks preparing the port anew, they are now removed while creating
the src archive.
Fixes#2959.
This patch unifies the handling of on-demand resource upgrades among
ram_fs and depot_rom, and applies the new pattern to the runtime view.
This way, runtime view becomes able to accommodate more complex
scenarios.
There is a bug in the LwIP VFS plugin, the chained buffers used by Lwip
use sizes expressed in sixteen bits, and under conditions such as a read
of 1<<16 the higher bits are lost and the plugin performs a zero length
read, and the application interprets this as a closed connection.
Fix#2947
Since we use the git repo by now remove all unnecessary ballast like
unused code and the git history. The will bring down the wifi_drv's
src archive to reasonable size again.
