tzfile.5: Sync from tzdb upstream
...
Make tzfile.5 a copy of the upstream tzdb version, except that
the tzdb version's first line is replaced by man-pages
boilerplate.
This has the following effect:
Do some minor spec fixes, notably about time type 0
and empty TZ strings. Omit some changes that were made on the
man-pages side, notably by changing some "timezone"s back to the
preferred-upstream "time zone" when talking about traditional
time zones as opposed to POSIX timezone settings.
Also, fix some formatting glitches.

proc.5: Describe ambiguities in /proc/<pid>/maps
...
Pathname escaping is not done properly in /proc/<pid>/maps;
because of this, different pathnames may appear the same
(verified by experiment and reading the source code).
Further details from Elvira about the relevant location in
the kernel code:
show_map_vma() from fs/proc/task_mmu.c uses seq_file_path()
from fs/seq_file.c to print the dentry name, which in turn
calls seq_path() from the same file. seq_path() uses
d_path() from fs/d_path.c to get the path name; this is
where the " (deleted)" part comes from. This is followed by
mangling the string with mangle_path() (fs/seq_file.c); this
function only replaces those characters that were supplied
in the "esc" argument and does not bother with escaping
anything else ('\\', for example). The value of this
argument comes without modifications from the initial call
of seq_file_path() by show_map_vma(), and that is "\n".

proc.5: Correct description of NStgid
...
The left-most pid namespace in a given procfs' `NStgid` does not
change based on the pid namespace of the reading process. Rather,
each procfs has an associated outer-most namespace, which gets
set when the procfs is mounted:
```
static struct dentry *proc_mount(struct file_system_type *fs_type,
int flags, const char *dev_name, void *data)
{
struct pid_namespace *ns;
if (flags & MS_KERNMOUNT) {
ns = data;
data = NULL;
} else {
ns = task_active_pid_ns(current);
}
return mount_ns(fs_type, flags, data, ns, ns->user_ns, proc_fill_super);
}
```
i.e. either the root namespace for kernel mounts or the namespace
of the mounting process. This ns then gets saved in the fs' super
block and is the basis for most operations. It is this ns that the
left-most value of `NStgid` is relative to, not the reading process.

proc.5: Setting dumpable to 1 reverts ownership of /proc/PID/* to effective IDs
...
The statement that resetting the dumpable attribute of a process
to 1 causes the ownership of files to revert the process's real
IDs looked suspect. And indeed it is at odds with the code in
fs/proc/base.c::task_dump_owner() (Linux 4.16 sources).
Further verified with a quick test that resetting dumpable to 1
causes the ownership of /proc/PID/* files to revert to the
process's effective IDs. Mea culpa for the original mistake.

proc.5: Rework the description of /proc/PID/mountinfo parent-ID field
...
After comments from Miklos, and further digging in the kernel
source that showed that chroot() can also result in "hidden"
parent-IDs in mountinfo, I've revised the description of
mountinfo.
In fs/proc_namespace.cs::how_mountinfo() there is:
/* mountpoints outside of chroot jail will give SEQ_SKIP on this */
err = seq_path_root(m, &mnt_path, &p->root, " \t\n\\");
if (err)
goto out;
I instrumented the 'if (err)' code path with printk()
to show that there is indeed a record corresponding to the
parent-ID for the process root that is being skipped.

proc.5: Correct the description of the parent mount ID for /proc/PID/mountinfo
...
I do not have an exact handle on the details, but I can see
roughly what is going on. Internally, there seems to be one
("hidden") mount ID reserved to each mount namespace, and that ID
is the parent of the root mount point.
Looking through the (4.14) kernel source, mount IDs are allocated
by a kernel function called mnt_alloc_id() (in fs/namespace.c),
which is in turn called by alloc_vfsmnt() which is in turn called
by clone_mnt().
A new mount namespace is created by the kernel function
copy_mnt_ns() (in fs/namespace.c, called by
create_new_namespaces() in kernel/nsproxy.c). The copy_mnt_ns()
function calls copy_tree() (in fs/namespace.c), and copy_tree()
calls clone_mnt() in *two* places. The first of these is the call
that creates the "hidden" mount ID that becomes the parent of the
root mount point. (I verified this by instrumenting the kernel
with a few printk() calls to display the IDs.) The second place
where copy_tree() calls clone_mnt() is in a loop that replicates
each of the mount points (including the root mount point) in the
source mount namespace.

tzfile.5: Sync from tzdb upstream
...
This makes tzfile.5 a copy of the tzdb version, except that the
tzdb version's first line is replaced by man-pages boilerplate.
The new version documents version 3 format, among other things.
Also, it removes the "Summary of the timezone information file
format" section, which should no longer be needed due to
improvements in the the part of the man page.

locale.5: Refer to existing locales for encoding details
...
Mike Fabian and Rafał Luzynski were recently named as glibc
localedata maintainers [1] and after that there's been active
development on this front, including discussion whether it would
be ok to use ASCII or some other encoding as values for actual
locate data.
Since I don't think it would make sense to try to have different
explanation for each glibc version on the locale(5) man page, I'm
proposing that we apply the below patch so that we refer to
existing locale definition files in general and not spell out the
exact format or any certain locale as a definitive guideline.
If the situation changes in the future or new a new convention
meant to last forever is created then perhaps Mike and Rafał can
provide an update then as needed.
