This decision should be audited and discussed.
Some factors:
* Passing an Io instance into start.
* Avoiding reference to global static instance if it won't be used, so
that it doesn't bloat the executable.
* Being able to use std.debug.print, and related functionality when
debugging std.Io instances and std.Progress.
instead, allow the user to set it as a field.
this fixes a bug where leak printing and error printing would run tty
config detection for stderr, and then emit a log, which is not necessary
going to print to stderr.
however, the nice defaults are gone; the user must explicitly assign the
tty_config field during initialization or else the logging will not have
color.

The 6.17 kernel added[1] syscalls for getting/setting certain file flags
and attributes. It's meant to be a more extensible replacement for these
ioctl's:
- `FS_IOC_GETFLAGS`/`FS_IOC_SETFLAGS`.
- `FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR`/`FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR`.
The definitions of these calls are as follows:
```zig
const file_attr = extern struct {
/// Extended flags that apply to this file. (get/set).
xflags: u64,
/// Preferred extent allocation size, in bytes. (get/set).
extsize: u32,
/// One of:
/// - The number of data extents in this file.
/// - If `FS_IOC_FSGETXATTRA` is set, the number of extended attribute events in the file.
/// (get)
nextents: u32,
/// Project Identifier (get/set).
projid: u32,
/// Preferred extent allocation size for CoW operations, in bytes (get/set).
cowextsize: u32,
};
// size=@sizeOf(file_attr)
fn file_getattr(dirfd: fd_t, path: [*:0], fattr: *file_attr, size: usize, at_flags: u32) {}
fn file_setattr(dirfd: fd_t, path: [*:0], fattr: *file_attr, size: usize, at_flags: u32) {}
```
Users need to set/check `xflags` with the `FS_XFLAG` flags defined in
`linux/fs.h`. `ioctl_xfs_fsgetxattr(2)` has more information about the
type of information one can retrieve.

More tasks could be added to the group at any time before it completes,
so it's not valid to look at the `token` passed in here.
There's also a related bug in `Threaded`, which is that tasks spawned in
a group after it is canceled will not observe that cancelation, but that
is a more complex bug which needs some deeper design changes.
Queues can now be "closed". A closed queue cannot have more elements
appended with `put`, and blocked calls to `put` will immediately unblock
having failed to append some elements. Calls to `get` will continue to
succeed as long as the queue buffer is non-empty, but will then never
block; already-blocked calls to `get` will unblock.
All queue get/put operations can now return `error.Closed` to indicate
that the queue has been closed. For bulk get/put operations, they may
add/receive fewer elements than the minimum requested *if* the queue was
closed or the calling task was canceled. In that case, if any elements
were already added/received, they are returned first, and successive
calls will return `error.Closed` or `error.Canceled`.
Also, fix a bug where `Queue.get` could deadlock because it incorrectly
blocked until the given buffer was *filled*.
