[ Upstream commit d5094bcb5bfdfea2cf0de8aaf77cc65db56cbdb5 ]

Nolibc assumes that the kernel ABI is using a time values that are as
large as a long integer. For most ABIs this holds true.
But for x32 this is not correct, as it uses 32bit longs but 64bit times.

Also the 'struct stat' implementation of nolibc relies on timespec::tv_sec
and time_t being the same type. While timespec::tv_sec comes from the
kernel and is of type __kernel_old_time_t, time_t is defined within nolibc.

Switch to the __kernel_old_time_t to always get the correct type.

This is the location regular userspace expects these definitions.

Nolibc works fine for small and limited program however most program
expect integer types to be defined in stdint.h rather than std.h.

This is a quick fix that moves the existing integer definitions in std.h
to stdint.h.

The ordering of includes and definitions for now is a bit of a mess, as
for example asm/signal.h is included after int definitions, but plenty of
structures are defined later as they rely on other includes.

Let's move the standard type definitions to a dedicated file that is
included first. We also move NULL there. This way all other includes
are aware of it, and we can bring asm/signal.h back to the top of the
file.
