This will enable us to query for the current system's hostname in both
Unix and Windows environments.
We could have pulled in the 'gethostname' crate for this, but:
1. I'm not a huge fan of micro-crates.
2. The 'gethostname' crate panics if an error occurs. (Which, to be
fair, an error should never occur, but it seems plausible on borked
systems? ripgrep runs in a lot of places, so I'd rather not take the
chance of a panic bringing down ripgrep for an optional convenience
feature.)
3. The 'gethostname' crate uses the 'windows-targets' crate from
Microsoft. This is arguably the "right" thing to do, but ripgrep
doesn't use them yet and they appear high-churn.
So I just added a safe wrapper to do this to winapi-util[1] and then
inlined the Unix version here. This brings in no extra dependencies and
the routine is fallible so that callers can recover from potentially
strange failures.

This does a variety of polishing.
1. Deprecate the tty methods in favor of std's IsTerminal trait.
2. Trim down un-needed dependencies.
3. Use bstr to implement escaping.
4. Various aesthetic polishing.
I'm doing this as prep work before adding more to this crate. And as
part of a general effort toward reducing ripgrep's dependencies.
This fixes a bug only present on Windows that would permit someone to
execute an arbitrary program if they crafted an appropriate directory
tree. Namely, if someone put an executable named 'xz.exe' in the root of
a directory tree and one ran 'rg -z foo' from the root of that tree,
then the 'xz.exe' executable in that tree would execute if there are any
'xz' files anywhere in the tree.
The root cause of this problem is that 'CreateProcess' on Windows will
implicitly look in the current working directory for an executable when
it is given a relative path to a program. Rust's standard library allows
this behavior to occur, so we work around it here. We work around it by
explicitly resolving programs like 'xz' via 'PATH'. That way, we only
ever pass an absolute path to 'CreateProcess', which avoids the implicit
behavior of checking the current working directory.
This fix doesn't apply to non-Windows systems as it is believed to only
impact Windows. In theory, the bug could apply on Unix if '.' is in
one's PATH, but at that point, you reap what you sow.
While the extent to which this is a security problem isn't clear, I
think users generally expect to be able to download or clone
repositories from the Internet and run ripgrep on them without fear of
anything too awful happening. Being able to execute an arbitrary program
probably violates that expectation. Therefore, CVE-2021-3013[1] was
created for this issue.
We apply the same logic to the --pre command, since the --pre command is
likely in a user's config file and it would be surprising for something
that the user is searching to modify which preprocessor command is used.
The --pre and -z/--search-zip flags are the only two ways that ripgrep
will invoke external programs, so this should cover any possible
exploitable cases of this bug.

It seems that PowerShell uses sockets instead of FIFOs to redirect the
output between commands. So add `is_socket` to our `is_readable_stdin`
check.
This seems unlikely to cause problems and it probably more generally
correct than what we had before. In theory, it could cause problems if
it produces false positives, in which case, ripgrep will try to read
stdin when it should search the current working directory. (And this
usually winds up manifesting as ripgrep blocking forever.) But, if the
stdin handle reports itself as a socket, then it seems like we should
read it.
Fixes#1741, Closes#1742
The top-level listing was just getting a bit too long for my taste. So
put all of the code in one directory and shrink the large top-level mess
to a small top-level mess.
NOTE: This commit only contains renames. The subsequent commit will
actually make ripgrep build again. We do it this way with the naive hope
that this will make it easier for git history to track the renames.
Sigh.
