/**
Note [Windows Unicode Arguments]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On Windows argv is usually encoded in the current Codepage which might not
support unicode.

Instead of ignoring the arguments to hs_init we expect them to be utf-8
encoded when coming from a custom main function. In the regular hs_main we
get the unicode arguments from the windows API and pass them along utf8
encoded instead.

This reduces special casing of arguments in later parts of the RTS and base
libraries to dealing with slash differences and using utf8 instead of the
current locale on Windows when decoding arguments.

/*
Note [OPTION_SAFE vs OPTION_UNSAFE]

Ticket #3910 originally pointed out that the RTS options are a potential
security problem. For example the -t -s or -S flags can be used to
overwrite files. This would be bad in the context of CGI scripts or
setuid binaries. So we introduced a system where +RTS processing is more
or less disabled unless you pass the -rtsopts flag at link time.

This scheme is safe enough but it also really annoyes users. They have
to use -rtsopts in many circumstances: with -threaded to use -N, with
-eventlog to use -l, with -prof to use any of the profiling flags. Many
users just set -rtsopts globally or in project .cabal files. Apart from
annoying users it reduces security because it means that deployed
binaries will have all RTS options enabled rather than just profiling
ones.

So now, we relax the set of RTS options that are available in the
default -rtsopts=some case. For "deployment" ways like vanilla and
-threaded we remain quite conservative. Only --info -? --help are
allowed for vanilla. For -threaded, -N and -N<x> are allowed with a
check that x <= num cpus.

For "developer" ways like -debug, -eventlog, -prof, we allow all the
options that are special to that way. Some of these allow writing files,
but the file written is not directly under the control of the attacker.
For the setuid case (where the attacker would have control over binary
name, current dir, local symlinks etc) we check if the process is
running setuid/setgid and refuse all RTS option processing. Users would
need to use -rtsopts=all in this case.

We are making the assumption that developers will not deploy binaries
built in the -debug, -eventlog, -prof ways. And even if they do, the
damage should be limited to DOS, information disclosure and writing
files like <progname>.eventlog, not arbitrary files.
