save-cwd: reduce default dependency save-cwd generally needs only a working fchdir or a working getcwd(NULL,0). If you are not worried about directories whose absolute name is longer than PATH_MAX, then reducing the default dependencies reduces the bulk for this module. However, there are cases where neither function works on Linux (an unreadable but searchable directory can be opened by O_SEARCH, except that Linux doesn't implement that yet; and Linux getcwd() has issues with long absolute names which glibc does not work around but which the full-blown getcwd module does). So someone desiring a truly robust solution needs to import the 'getcwd' module at the same time as 'save-cwd'. * modules/save-cwd (Depends-on): Use getcwd-lgpl. * lib/save-cwd.c: Update comments. * NEWS: Document the semantic change.
