Other changes summmary:
* Use module level imports instead of fully qualified imports where appropriate
* Fix intermittent failing test_positive_zero_bytes because of broken pipe
* Cleanup old disabled test for warning of following indefinitely
Summary:
* Disable test_retry6 on android because of intermittent failures
* Use wait() instead of wait_with_output in test_cat, test_cp, test_sort
* tests/sort: Simplify usage of test_sigpipe_panic
* Fix tests in test_tee.
tests/tac:
There was a change in the `tests/common/util.rs` test api concerning piped input which may have
revealed a bug in the implementation of tac. Please see also

A short summary of changes:
* Add some basic tests for UChild and the run methods.
* Try more often in a fixed interval to create the tempfile for CapturedOutput.
* Fix drop order of struct fields for better cleanup of temporary files/dirs.
* Mark UChild::wait_with_output and UChild::pipe_in_and_wait_with_output deprecated
* Make CapturedOutput private
* Panic in stdout_all, stdout_all_bytes etc. if output is not captured.
* Rename some methods, refactor, clean up, fix documentation, add try_... methods
Previously, if stdin redirect pointed to a regular file,
tailing started at the beginning of the file. However,
tailing needs to start at the current position because this
is expected by tests/tail-2/start-middle.sh.
This fixes the issue by taking the current offset into account
while going backwards through the stdin redirected file.
This fixes a bug where calling `tail - < file.txt` would result
in invoking `unbounded_tail()`.
However, it is a stdin redirect to a seekable regular file and
therefore `bounded_tail` should be invoked as if `tail file.txt` had
been called.
* tail: reduce CPU load for polling
This reduces the CPU load for polling drastically (from ~80% down to ~5%)
by removing/fixing several previous workarounds related to polling,
while still passing all related GNU test-suite checks.
* set Notify::PollWatcher delay to: sleep_sec/10 instead of
sleep_sec/100
* set recv_timeout to sleep_sec instead of sleep_sec/100
* remove the manual polling of watched files
Bugs:
* fix an issue with headers to consistently pass
"test_follow_name_retry_headers" and "gnu/tests/tail-2/overlay-headers.sh"
Code clean-up and refactor
* make fields of struct FileHandling private (and add getters/setters)
to ensure that the paths are absolute and match the paths returned by
Notify::Events
* replace calls to "crash!" with "return USimpleError"
* clean-up formatting
On macOS path.is_dir() can be false for directories
if it was a redirect, e.g. ` tail < DIR`
* fix some tests for macOS
Cleanup:
* fix clippy/spell-checker
* fix build for windows by refactoring stdin_is_pipe_or_fifo()
* add various tests adapted from `gnu/tests/tail-2/follow-stdin.sh`
* explicitly set_stdin to null where needed, otherwise stdin is always
`piped`
* tighten some existing tests (no_stderr, code_is, etc)
* add test for fifo
* add various tests adapted from `gnu/tests/tail-2/follow-stdin.sh`
* explicitly set_stdin to null where needed, otherwise stdin is always
`piped`
* tighten some existing tests (no_stderr, code_is, etc)
* add test for fifo
* Fix a timing related bug with polling (---disable-inotify) where some
Events weren't delivered fast enough by `Notify::PollWatcher` to pass all
of tests/tail-2/retry.sh and test_tail::{test_retry4, retry7}.
* uu_tail now reverts to polling automatically if inotify backend reports
too many open files (this mimics the behavior of GNU's tail).
