  MFC r307227 and r307343:
  
    Improve typing of POSIX search tree functions.
  
    Back in 2015 when I reimplemented these functions to use an AVL tree, I
    was annoyed by the weakness of the typing of these functions. Both tree
    nodes and keys are represented by 'void *', meaning that things like the
    documentation for these functions are an absolute train wreck.
  
    To make things worse, users of these functions need to cast the return
    value of tfind()/tsearch() from 'void *' to 'type_of_key **' in order to
    access the key. Technically speaking such casts violate aliasing rules.
    I've observed actual breakages as a result of this by enabling features
    like LTO.
  
    I've filed a bug report at the Austin Group. Looking at the way the bug
    got resolved, they made a pretty good step in the right direction. A new
    type 'posix_tnode' has been added to correspond to tree nodes. It is
    still defined as 'void' for source-level compatibility, but in the very
    far future it could be replaced by a proper structure type containing a
    key pointer.
