Create `windows/api.rs` for safer FFI
FFI is inherently unsafe. For memory safety we need to assert that some contract is being upheld on both sides of the FFI, though of course we can only ever check our side. In Rust, `unsafe` blocks are used to assert safety and `// SAFETY` comments describing why it is safe. Currently in sys/windows we have a lot of this unsafety spread all over the place, with variations on the same unsafe patterns repeated. And because of the repitition and frequency, we're a bit lax with the safety comments.
This PR aims to fix this and to make FFI safety more auditable by creating an `api` module with the goal of centralising and consolidating this unsafety. It contains thin wrappers around the Windows API that make most functions safe to call or, if that's not possible, then at least safer. Note that its goal is *only* to address safety. It does not stray far from the Windows API and intentionally does not attempt to make higher lever wrappers around, for example, file handles. This is better left to the existing modules. The windows/api.rs file has a top level comment to help future contributors understand the intent of the module and the design decisions made.
I chose two functions as a first tentative step towards the above goal:
- [`GetLastError`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/errhandlingapi/nf-errhandlingapi-getlasterror) is trivially safe. There's no reason to wrap it in an `unsafe` block every time. So I simply created a safe `get_last_error` wrapper.
- [`SetFileInformationByHandle`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-setfileinformationbyhandle) is more complex. It essentially takes a generic type but over a C API which necessitates some amount of ceremony. Rather than implementing similar unsafe patterns in multiple places, I provide a safe `set_file_information_by_handle` that takes a Rusty generic type and handles converting that to the form required by the C FFI.

Windows: Support sub-millisecond sleep
Use `CreateWaitableTimerExW` with `CREATE_WAITABLE_TIMER_HIGH_RESOLUTION`. Does not work before Windows 10, version 1803 so in that case we fallback to using `Sleep`.
I've created a `WaitableTimer` type so it can one day be adapted to also support waiting to an absolute time (which has been talked about). Note though that it currently returns `Err(())` because we can't do anything with the errors other than fallback to the old `Sleep`. Feel free to tell me to do errors properly. It just didn't seem worth constructing an `io::Error` if we're never going to surface it to the user. And it *should* all be infallible anyway unless the OS is too old to support it.
Closes #43376

This implements the ability to add arbitrary attributes to a command on Windows targets using a new `raw_attribute` method on the [`CommandExt`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/os/windows/process/trait.CommandExt.html) trait. Setting these attributes provides extended configuration options for Windows processes.

For some reason these aren't in the mingw list.
We'll need them shortly.

Dump mingw-64's error codes into our source tree.
I have verified with these runes:
$ f=library/std/src/sys/windows/c/errors.rs
$ diff -ub <(git-cat-file blob HEAD~:$f | sort) <(cat $f | perl -pe 's/WSABASEERR \+ (\d+)/10000 + $1/e' |sort) |grep ^- |less
that this does not change any existing values.

We're going to add many more of these.
This commit is pure code motion, plus the necessary administrivia, as
I have veried with the following runes:
$ git-diff HEAD~ | grep '^+' |sort >plus
$ git-diff HEAD~ | grep '^-' | perl -pe 's/^-/+/' |sort >min
$ diff -ub min plus |less
The output is precisely the expected `mod` and `use` directives.
