posix: always seek to EOF when opening a file in append mode

Python 3 already does this, so skip it there.

Consider the program:

   #include <stdio.h>

   int main() {
     FILE *f = fopen("narf", "w");
     fprintf(f, "narf\n");
     fclose(f);

     f = fopen("narf", "a");
     printf("%ld\n", ftell(f));
     fprintf(f, "troz\n");
     printf("%ld\n", ftell(f));

     return 0;
   }

on macOS, FreeBSD, and Linux with glibc, this program prints

   5
   10

but on musl libc (Alpine Linux and probably others) this prints

   0
   10

By my reading of
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/fopen.html
this is technically correct, specifically:

> Opening a file with append mode (a as the first character in the
> mode argument) shall cause all subsequent writes to the file to be
> forced to the then current end-of-file, regardless of intervening
> calls to fseek().

in other words, the file position doesn't really matter in append-mode
files, and we can't depend on it being at all meaningful unless we
perform a seek() before tell() after open(..., 'a'). Experimentally
after a .write() we can do a .tell() and it'll always be reasonable,
but I'm unclear from reading the specification if that's a smart thing
to rely on. This matches what we do on Windows and what Python 3 does
for free, so let's just be consistent. Thanks to Yuya for the idea.

#require serve

  $ hg init server
  $ hg serve -R server -p $HGPORT -d --pid-file=hg1.pid -E ../error.log
  $ cat hg1.pid >> $DAEMON_PIDS

Check basic fetching

  $ hg debugdownload "http://localhost:$HGPORT/?cmd=lookup&key=tip"
  1 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
  $ hg debugdownload  -o null.txt "http://localhost:$HGPORT/?cmd=lookup&key=null"
  $ cat null.txt
  1 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Check the request is made from the usual Mercurial logic
(rev details, give different content if the request has a Mercurial user agent)

  $ get-with-headers.py --headeronly "localhost:$HGPORT" "rev/tip" content-type
  200 Script output follows
  content-type: text/html; charset=ascii
  $ hg debugdownload "http://localhost:$HGPORT/rev/tip"

  $ hg debugdownload ./null.txt
