This is a companion to the recent set-file-modes patch.
It adds support for a ‘nofollow’ flag to set-file-times (Bug#39773).
Like the set-file-modes patch, it needs work in the w32 port.

When setting file times, avoid following symbolic links
when the file is not supposed to be a symbolic link.
* lib/futimens.c, lib/utimensat.c, m4/futimens.m4, m4/utimensat.m4:
New files, copied from Gnulib.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-cloud.el (gnus-cloud-replace-file):
When creating a file that is not supposed to exist already,
use the excl flag to check this.
* lisp/net/tramp-adb.el (tramp-adb-handle-set-file-times):
* lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-sh-handle-set-file-times):
* lisp/net/tramp-sudoedit.el (tramp-sudoedit-handle-set-file-times):
Accept an optional FLAG arg that is currently ignored,
and add a FIXME comment for it.
* lisp/net/tramp-gvfs.el (tramp-gvfs-handle-set-file-times):
* src/fileio.c (Fset_file_times):
Support an optional FLAG arg.
* src/fileio.c (Fcopy_file): Use futimens instead of set_file_times,
as it’s simpler and is a POSIX API.
* src/sysdep.c (set_file_times): Move from here ...
* src/w32.c (set_file_times): ... to here, and make it static,
since it is now used only in w32.c. Presumably w32.c should also
add support for futimens and utimensat (the POSIX APIs, which
Emacs now uses) and it can remove fdutimens (the Gnulib API,
which Emacs no longer uses).

mark it as documented.
Perform 'regexp-opt' on nested 'or' forms, and after expansion of
user-defined and 'eval' forms. Characters are now turned into strings
for wider 'regexp-opt' scope. This preserves the longest-match
semantics for string in 'or' forms over composition.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs): Document.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--normalise-or-arg)
(rx--all-string-or-args): New.
(rx--translate-or): Normalise arguments first, and check for strings
in subforms.
(rx--expand-eval): Extracted from rx--translate-eval.
(rx--translate-eval): Call rx--expand-eval.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-or, rx-def-in-or): Add tests.
* etc/NEWS: Announce.
When 'load-dangerous-libraries' was t, Emacs allowed loading .elc
files compiled by XEmacs. This patch removes the support for that use
case, and declares the variable obsolete.
* lisp/subr.el (load-dangerous-libraries): Declare obsolete.
* src/lread.c (Fload): Ignore its value, and thereby refuse to load
files byte compiled by XEmacs.
(syms_of_lread): Update doc string of 'bytecomp-version-regexp' to not
refer to it.
* doc/emacs/building.texi (Lisp Libraries): Remove its documentation.
Omitting the extra brackets is a common mistake; see discussion at
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2020-02/msg00215.html
* src/regex-emacs.c (reg_errcode_t, re_error_msgid): Add REG_ECLASSBR.
(regex_compile): Check for the mistake.
* test/src/regex-emacs-tests.el (regexp-invalid): Test.
* etc/NEWS: Announce.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eldoc.el: Update commentary.
(eldoc--eval-expression-setup): Use new hook.
(eldoc--supported-p): Accomodate new hook.
(eldoc-documentation-functions): New hook.
(eldoc-documentation-default, eldoc-documentation-compose): New
functions.
(eldoc-documentation-function): Use 'eldoc-documentation-default' as new
default value. Update documentation and custom attributes.
(eldoc-print-current-symbol-info): Accomodate possible null value for
'eldoc-documentation-function'.
* etc/NEWS: Mention them.
* doc/emacs/programs.texi (Emacs Lisp Documentation Lookup): Mention
new hook and changes to 'eldoc-documentation-function'.
* lisp/hexl.el (hexl-mode, hexl-revert-buffer-function):
* lisp/ielm.el (inferior-emacs-lisp-mode):

* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el (emacs-lisp-mode):
* lisp/progmodes/octave.el (octave-mode):
* lisp/progmodes/python.el (python-mode): Use new hook.
This avoids some race conditions (Bug#39683). E.g., if some other
program changes a file to a symlink between the time Emacs creates
the file and the time it changes the file’s permissions, using the
new flag prevents Emacs from inadvertently changing the
permissions of a victim in some completely unrelated directory.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add fchmodat.
