coreutils 0.8.0

### **Rust Coreutils 0.8.0 Release:**

We are excited to announce the release of **Rust Coreutils 0.8.0** — a major release featuring a **large-scale migration from `nix` to `rustix`** for lower-level syscall safety, **significant performance gains** across core utilities, **expanded WebAssembly (WASI) support** with a brand-new **[online playground](https://uutils.github.io/playground/)**, and continued hardening against edge-case panics and `/dev/full` aborts!

### Highlights:

- **GNU Compatibility & Upstream Collaboration**
  - **630 passing GNU tests**, with 2 fewer failures than 0.7.0
  - Continued contributing tests and bug reports upstream to GNU coreutils, strengthening both projects
  - Our compatibility work regularly uncovers edge cases in GNU itself, leading to fixes on both sides

- **`nix` → `rustix` Migration**
  - Replaced `nix` crate with `rustix` across **cat**, **df**, **wc**, **tty**, **tsort**, **tail**, **touch**, **date**, **mkdir**, and **uucore**
  - Reduced range of unsafe code in **hostname**, **logname**, **who**, and **nice**
  - `uucore`: uses `rustix` for `splice()`, restricted to Linux

- **Performance Improvements**
  - `uucore`: Share fluent resources between threads — **dd perf +45%**
  - `uucore`: Call `rt_sigaction` once instead of 62 times — faster startup
  - `ls`: Replace recursion with iterative depth-first search; remove many unnecessary allocations
  - `sort`: Performance improvements across sorting paths
  - `wc`: Improved `-c` performance with unextended pipe input (Linux)
  - `cat`: Avoid unnecessary `pipe()` when stdout is already a pipe; don't lock stdout before `splice()`
  - `dd`: Avoid zero-filling buffer at `read_and_discard`
  - `tee`: Increased buffer size for large input; removed `Box` and `dyn` overhead
  - `numfmt`: Protect name from argv[0] — **+3% perf**
  - `pr`: Avoid `String` conversion when storing lines to print
  - `true`/`false`/`echo`: Avoid `uu_app().render_version()` for smaller binary

- **WebAssembly (WASI) Support & Online Playground**
  - **New: [Online Playground](https://uutils.github.io/playground/)** — try Rust Coreutils directly in your browser, powered by WebAssembly ([blog post](https://uutils.github.io/blog/2025-04-playground/))
  - Added WASI support for **30+ utilities** including `ls`, `head`, `cat`, `cp`, `mv`, `sort`, `tail`, and many more
  - Embedded all locales in the WASI binary
  - Added WASI platform stubs for `FileInformation` and IO module in `uucore`
  - Single-threaded sort path for WASI; disabled `rayon` on WASI

- **Notable Bug Fixes**
  - `date`: Fixed panic on huge format widths, `%#P` case-swap, narrow width on wide fields, locale-aware localization before GNU modifier processing
  - `ln`: Avoid dereferencing target with `--no-dereference`; restore backup if linking fails
  - `factor`: Fixed crash on malformed input; deduplicated and optimized parsing
  - `head`: Reset stale partial line state on reused buffers; fix error message for directory input
  - `sort`: Fixed infinite loop on `--files0-from` read error; added locale-aware month sorting (`-M`)
  - `cut`: Reject literal `''` delimiter; honor only-delimited in newline-delimiter mode
  - `tr`: Reject unknown character classes; fix graph/print class mapping
  - `timeout`: Return timed-out status after kill grace period
  - `sync`: Fall back to full sync when `--file-system` has no operands; fix exit code on `fcntl` failure
  - `expr`: Fix eager evaluation of parenthesized dead branches
  - `split`: Preserve non-UTF-8 bytes in output filename generation
  - `od`: Default `-t f` to double precision
  - `dd`: Fix ISO-8859-1 case conversion for `conv=lcase/ucase`; catch OOM; suppress zero multiplier warning when multiplicand is zero
  - `numfmt`: Preserve fractional digits with `--from-unit`; implement latest GNU changes
  - `cp`: Always create dest dirs with owner write bit before fixing permissions
  - `stty`: Fix incorrect ppc64el type presumption
  - `cksum`: Add SHAKE128/256 length validation; bring back blake3; match GNU digest length errors in `--check` mode

- **Robustness & Security**
  - Fixed `/dev/full` panics in `coreutils --help`, `libstdbuf`, `sync`, `tr`, `nice`
  - Protected utility names against `argv[0]` manipulation across `*sum`, `baseNM`, `ls`/`dir`/`vdir`, `env`, `numfmt`, and more
  - `coreutils`: Protect against `env -a` for security
  - `env`: Disallow `__ALL__` in `--{ignore,default,block}-signal`
  - `chown`: Warn when `.` is used as owner:group separator

- **Platform Support**
  - NetBSD: Multiple fixes, `stdbuf` support, expanded CI coverage
  - `pathchk`: Now builds for Windows
  - `wc`: Cross-platform building and 32-bit support
  - `stdbuf`: Fixed Cygwin `cfg` block; detect unsupported target at build time
  - `uucore(fs)`: Made `display_permissions_unix` cross-platform
  - `uucore`: Support realtime signals (`RTMIN`/`RTMAX`) in `signal_by_name_or_value`
  - `uucore`: Permit `D` as decimal suffix modifier for GNU compatibility

- **Documentation & Manpages**
  - Manpages now include **TL;DR examples**, **links to the source code**, and **open bugs** — see for example [`ls`](https://uutils.github.io/coreutils/docs-fr/utils/ls.html)
  - Manpages are available in **multiple languages** including [French](https://uutils.github.io/coreutils/docs-fr/utils/mktemp.html) and [Spanish](https://uutils.github.io/coreutils/docs-es/utils/pwd.html), refreshed daily
  - Added manpage linting in CI to catch formatting issues early
  - TL;DR attribution and disclaimer are now translatable

- **Contributions**: This release was made possible by **13 new contributors** joining our community
