POSIX.1-2024 has been approved

It hasn’t been published yet, so just update documentation talking
about “draft” POSIX, about particular POSIX versions, etc.
More work will need to be done once it’s published on the web,
to update URLs, better document new and changed interfaces,
and presumably to implement some of the new interfaces.

Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
This function is missing on some platforms:
mingw, MSVC 14, Android 9.0.
@item
The size of the buffer required for this function is not a compile-time
constant.  Also, the function truncates a result that would be larger than
the minimum buffer size.  For these reasons, this function is removed
in POSIX.1-2008.  Better use the @code{getcwd} function instead.
