sterni 5262e5bf6c refactor(3p/mime4cl): use SB-POSIX for FILE-LENGTH 
This is slightly better than the (mostly untested) mess we had before:
Just implement the one thing we need using the tools the one
implementation we support (SBCL) gives us.

Eventually, we'll want to make this portable, probably using osicat.
Unfortunately, packaging this requires support for cffi-grovel (b/383)
which buildLisp lacks at the moment.

mime4cl

MIME4CL is a Common Lisp library for dealing with MIME messages. It was originally been written by Walter C. Pelissero and vendored into depot (mime4cl-20150207T211851.tbz to be exact) as upstream has become inactive. Its original website can still be accessed.

The depot version has since diverged from upstream. Main aims were to improve performance and reduce code size by relying on third party libraries like flexi-streams. It is planned to improve encoding handling in the long term. Currently, the library is being worked on intermittently and not very well tested—it may not work as expected.

Differences from the original version

  • //nix/buildLisp is used as the build system. ASDF is currently untested and may be broken.

  • The dependency on sclf has been eliminated by inlining the relevant parts.

  • MY-STRING-INPUT-STREAM, DELIMITED-INPUT-STREAM, CHARACTER-INPUT-ADAPTER-STREAM, BINARY-INPUT-ADAPTER-STREAM etc. have been replaced by (thin wrappers around) flexi-streams. In addition to improved handling of encodings, this allows using READ-SEQUENCE via the gray stream interface.
