This commit moves the `sem_*' family of functions from the IPC chapter,
replacing them with a reference to their new location in the Threads
chapter. `sem_clockwait' is also moved out of the Non-POSIX Extensions
subsection since it is now included in the standard since Issue 8:

The manual contained several instances of incorrect formatting
that were correct texinfo but produced incorrectly rendered manuals
or incorrect behaviour from the tooling.
The most important was incorrect quoting of function returns
by failing to use {} to quote the return. The impact of this
mistake means that 'info libc func' does not jump to the function
in question but instead to the introductory page under the assumption
that func doesn't exist. The function returns are now correctly
quoted.
The second issue was the use of a category specifier with
@deftypefun which doesn't accept a category specifier. If a category
specifier is required then @deftypefn needs to be used. This is
corrected by changing the command to @deftypefn for such functions
that used {Deprecated function} as a category.
The last issue is a missing space between the function name and the
arguments which results in odd function names like "epoll_wait(int"
instead of "epoll_wait". This also impacts the use of 'info libc'
and is corrected.
We additionally remove ';' from the end of function arguments and
add an 'int' return type for dprintf.
Lastly we add a new test check-deftype.sh which verifies the expected
formatting of @deftypefun, @deftypefunx, @deftypefn, and
@deftypefnx. The new test is also run as the summary file is
generated to ensure we don't generate incorrect results.
The existing check-safety.sh is also run directly as a test to increase
coverage since the existing tests only ran on manual install.
The new tests now run as part of the standard "make check" that
pre-commit CI runs and developers should run.
No regressions on x86_64.
HTML and PDF rendering reviewed and looks correct for all changes.

Replace atomic_increment and atomic_increment_val with atomic_fetch_add_relaxed.
One case in sem_post.c uses release semantics (see comment above it).
The others are simple counters and do not protect any shared data from
concurrent accesses.
Passes regress on AArch64.

The function sem_close is AC-unsafe because lll_lock*
leaks a lock (aculock) and not because of twalk.

This patch adds a new "Inter-Process Communication"
chapter to cover the sem*, msg*, and shm* functions.
Initially we document only the sem* function signatures
and their safety notes.
