When producing error and warning messages, libgfortran writes a
message by using many system calls. By using vectored writes (the
POSIX writev function) when available and feasible to use without
major surgery, we reduce the chance that output gets intermingled with
other output to stderr.
In practice, this is done by introducing a new function estr_writev in
addition to the existing estr_write. In order to use this, the old
st_vprintf is removed, replaced by direct calls of vsnprintf, allowing
more message batching.
Regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
