Now that we've branched for the LLVM 14 release, our support window
moves to clang-13 and clang-14. Similarly, AppleClang 13 has been
released for some time now, so that should be the oldest compiler
we support, per our policy.
A possible follow-up would be to remove _LIBCPP_HAS_NO_CONCEPTS, since
I don't think we support any compiler that doesn't support concepts
anymore.

This commit partially reverts 0954e2b2d0 and 3fa4cff974, which
make changes to the libc++ documentation implifying that OpenBSD is
supported. Neither of these changes have been reviewed AFAICT, so
I'm reverting as a matter of enforcing:
1. That changes get reviewed before being committed
2. That we have a discussion and a support plan for supporting
OpenBSD officially in libc++
Please note that I would be thrilled to support OpenBSD officially in
libc++, however doing so requires more than adding a note in the docs.
In particular, please make sure you read the note in [1] about setting
up CI testing for OpenBSD.

This patch overhauls the documentation around building libc++
for vendors, and using libc++ for end-users. It also:
- Removes mention of the standalone build, which we've been trying to
get rid of for a long time.
- Removes mention of using a local ABI installation, which we don't do
and is documented as "not recommended".
- Removes mention of the separate libc++filesystem.a library, which isn't
relevant anymore since filesystem support is in the main library.
- Adds mention of the GDB pretty printers and how to use them.
The various design docs have been moved to RST, and the linked blog post
does not apply anymore since libc++ is the default library used by Clang
on Apple platforms.
This commit finishes moving the <atomic> design documents to the RST
documentation and removes the old documentation. https://libcxx.llvm.org
is already pointing to the new documentation only now, so the removal of
the old documentation is really a NFC.
I went over the old documentation and I don't think we're leaving anything
important behind - I think everything important was mentionned in the RST
documentation anyway.

Currently, papers and issues are in separate .csv files (that is easier to update), but I can put them inline.Transforming current html tables into rst are done by the script (attached to the patch FYI but I'll remove it before committing).
I'll of course update RST files before committing to match any modifications that may happen in master branch.
This patch moves the status pages in www/ to RST format in docs/.
It also does some other minor changes: fix copyright year and broken comment end, adds substitutions for coherence (and add colors, but that can be removed easily).
It adds as well redirects from old to new status pages.

This increases the Mac OS requirement for building libc++ to 10.12.

It's hard to imagine someone using a recent version of libc++ with a
roughly 3 years old Clang. Since we're not testing libc++ with Clang 3.5
anyway, claiming support for it is somewhat of a lie.
Note that we don't test Clang 4 either, however I have no reason to bump
the requirement beyond Clang 4 at the moment, whereas removing Clang 3.5
allows simplifying the test suite.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D76618
Summary:
This patch make G++03 explicitly unsupported with libc++, as discussed on the mailing lists.
Below is the rational for this decision.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
libc++ claims to support GCC with C++03 ("G++03"), and this is a problem for our users.
Our C++03 users are all using Clang. They must be. Less than 9% of the C++03 tests pass with GCC [1][2]. No non-trivial C++ program could work.
Attempting to support G++03 impacts our QoI considerably. Unlike Clang, G++03 offers almost no C++11 extensions. If we could remove all the fallbacks for G++03, it would mean libc++ could::
* Improve Correctness:
Every `#ifdef _LIBCPP_HAS_NO_<C++11-feature>` is a bug manifest. It exists to admit for deviant semantics.
* Achieve ABI stability between C++03 and C++11
Differences between our C++03 and C++Rest branches contain ABI bugs. For example `std::nullptr_t` and `std::function::operator()(...)` are currently incompatible between C++11 and C++03, but could be fixed.
* Decrease Compile Times and Memory Usage:
Writing efficient SFINAE requires C++11. Using alias templates, libc++ could reduce the number of instantiations it produces substantially.
* Decrease Binary Size
Similar to the last point, G++03 forces metaprogramming techniques that emit more debug information [3] [4]. Compared to libstdc++, debug information size increases of +10% are not uncommon.

As we gear up to drop support for GCC in C++03, we should make clear
what our C++03 mode is, the C++11 extensions it provides,
and the C++11 extensions it depends on.
The section of this document discussing user-facing extensions has
been left blank while the community discusses new directions. For now
it's just a warning to users.
Additionally, the document contains examples of how these extensions
should be used and why. For example, using alias templates over class
templates.

Following the discussion on the libcxx-dev mailing list
(http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/libcxx-dev/2019-May/000358.html),
this implements the new policy for handling experimental features and
their deprecation. We basically add a deprecation warning for
std::experimental::filesystem, and we remove a bunch of <experimental/*>
headers that were now empty.

Summary:
This change allows specifying the version of libc++abi's ABI to re-export
when configuring CMake. It also clearly identifies which ABI version of
libc++abi each export file contains.
Finally, it removes hardcoded knowledge about the 10.9 SDK for MacOS,
since that knowledge is not relevant anymore. Indeed, libc++ can't be
built with the toolchain that came with the 10.9 SDK anyway because
the version of Clang it includes is too old (for example if you want
to build a working libc++.dylib, you need bugfixes to visibility
attributes that are only in recent Clangs).

Summary:
This patch implements all the feature test macros libc++ currently supports, as specified by the standard or cppreference prior to C++2a.
The tests and `<version>` header are generated using a script. The script contains a table of each feature test macro, the headers it should be accessible from, and its values of each dialect of C++.
When a new feature test macro is added or needed, the table should be updated and the script re-run.

In upcoming changes to filesystem I plan to change file_time_type
to use __int128_t as its underlying representation, in order
to allow it to have a range and resolution at least that of

There was some pushback against this decision, so I drafted
a document explaining the problems, potential solutions, and
the rational for the decision.
However, it's probably easier to let people read the generated
HTML rather than the raw restructured text. For this reason
I'm commiting the design documents before hand, so they can
be available during any subsequent discussion or code review.
