[PATCH v2 01/14] Allow file ports in ‘chdir’ when supported.

[Maxime Devos]

* configure.ac: Check for ‘fchdir’.
* libguile/filesys.c
(scm_chdir): Support file ports.
(scm_init_filesys): Report support of file ports.
* doc/ref/posix.texi (Processes): Update accordingly.
* doc/ref/guile.texi: Add copyright line for new documentation in this
patch and later patches.
* test-suite/tests/filesys.test ("chdir"): Test it.
