Implement quick_exit() / at_quick_exit() from C++11 / C1x. Also add a
__noreturn macro and modify the other exiting functions to use it. The __noreturn macro, unlike __dead2, must be used BEFORE the function. This is in line with the C and C++ specifications that place _Noreturn (c1x) and [[noreturn]] (C++11) in front of the functions. As with __dead2, this macro falls back to using the GCC attribute. Unfortunately, clang currently sets the same value for the C version macro in C99 and C1x modes, so these functions are hidden by default. At some point before 10.0, I need to go through the headers and clean up the C1x / C++11 visibility. Reviewed by: brooks (mentor)
