Add libc_bitflags convenience macro

We define many bitflags types with values from the libc crate. Currently
these look like this:

    bitflags!{
        flags ProtFlags: libc::c_int {
            const PROT_NONE      = libc::PROT_NONE,
            const PROT_READ      = libc::PROT_READ,
            const PROT_WRITE     = libc::PROT_WRITE,
            const PROT_EXEC      = libc::PROT_EXEC,
            #[cfg(any(target_os = "linux", target_os = "android"))]
            const PROT_GROWSDOWN = libc::PROT_GROWSDOWN,
            #[cfg(any(target_os = "linux", target_os = "android"))]
            const PROT_GROWSUP   = libc::PROT_GROWSUP,
        }
    }

There's some repetition which is tedious. With the new macro, the above
can instead be written

    libc_bitflags!{
        flags ProtFlags: libc::c_int {
            PROT_NONE,
            PROT_READ,
            PROT_WRITE,
            PROT_EXEC,
            #[cfg(any(target_os = "linux", target_os = "android"))]
            PROT_GROWSDOWN,
            #[cfg(any(target_os = "linux", target_os = "android"))]
            PROT_GROWSUP,
        }
    }

Thanks to Daniel Keep for the Little Book of Rust Macros, and for
helping with this macro.

+/// The `libc_bitflags!` macro helps with a common use case of defining bitflags with values from
+/// the libc crate. It is used the same way as the `bitflags!` macro, except that only the name of
+/// the flag value has to be given.
+///
+/// The `libc` crate must be in scope with the name `libc`.
+///
+/// # Example
+/// ```
+/// libc_bitflags!{
+///     flags ProtFlags: libc::c_int {
+///         PROT_NONE,
+///         PROT_READ,
+///         PROT_WRITE,
+///         PROT_EXEC,
+///         #[cfg(any(target_os = "linux", target_os = "android"))]
+///         PROT_GROWSDOWN,
+///         #[cfg(any(target_os = "linux", target_os = "android"))]
+///         PROT_GROWSUP,
+///     }
+/// }
+/// ```
