* ls: Implement --zero flag. (#2929)
This flag can be used to provide a easy machine parseable output from
ls, as discussed in the GNU bug report
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=49716.
There are some peculiarities with this flag:
- Current implementation of GNU ls of the `--zero` flag implies some
other flags. Those can be overridden by setting those flags after
`--zero` in the command line.
- This flag is not compatible with `--dired`. This patch is not 100%
compliant with GNU ls: GNU ls `--zero` will fail if `--dired` and
`-l` are set, while with this patch only `--dired` is needed for the
command to fail.
We also add `--dired` flag to the parser, with no additional behaviour
change.
Testing done:
```
$ bash util/build-gnu.sh
[...]
$ bash util/run-gnu-test.sh tests/ls/zero-option.sh

PASS: tests/ls/zero-option.sh

* Use the US way to spell Behavior
* Fix formatting with cargo fmt -- tests/by-util/test_ls.rs
* Simplify --zero flag overriding logic by using index_of
Also, allow multiple --zero flags, as this is possible with GNU ls
command. Only the last one is taken into account.

* ls: handle looping symlinks infinite printing
* ls: better coloring and printing symlinks when dereferenced
* tests/ls: add dereferencing and symlink loop tests
* ls: reformat changed using rustfmt
* ls: follow clippy advice for cleaner code
* uucore/fs: fix FileInformation to open directory handles in Windows as
well
This change will extract a utility already present in ls to uucore.
This utility is used by dir and vdir too, which are adjusted to
look it up in uucode. No further changes to ls, dir or dirv intended.
The change here largely fiddles with the output of uu_wc to match
that of GNU wc. This is the case to the extent to make unit tests
pass, however, there are differences remaining. One specific
difference I did not tackle is that GNU wc will not align the
output columns (compute_number_width() -> 1) in the specific case
of the input for --files0-from=- being a named pipe, not real stdin.
This difference can be triggered using the following two invocations.
- wc --files0-from=- < files0 # use a named pipe, GNU does align
- cat files0- | wc --files0-from=- # use real stdin, GNU does not
align.
unnecessary trailing space was being added. because we were padding for alignment,
which is not required with -m

This should correct the usage strings in both the `--help` and user documentation. Previously, sometimes the name of the utils did not show up correctly.
* ls: add new optional arguments to --classify flag
The --classify flag in ls now takes an option when argument
that may have the values always, auto and none.
Modified clap argument to allow an optional parameter and
changed the classify flag value parsing logic to account for
this change.
* ls: add test for indicator-style, ind and classify with value none
* ls: require option paramter to --classify to use a = to specify flag value
* ls: account for all the undocumented possible values for the --classify flag
Added the other values for the --classify flag along with modifications to tests.
Also documented the inconsistency between GNU coreutils because we accept the
flag value even for the short version of the flag.
