On Android devices, the root directory is not readable. This stops the VCS discovery failing the whole install by just ignoring that for VCS discovery, in the same manner as for root.

In my case, a dune package was not in a VCS folder because it was being built by nix, which for reproducibility doesn't include the .git folder in the build environment (because even though the commit contents are the same, the git database isn't, e.g. it can contain different tags etc).

On Android devices, the root directory is not readable. This stops the
VCS discovery failing the whole install by just ignoring that for VCS
discovery, in the same manner as for root.

CHANGES:

### Fixed

- Support HaikuOS: don't call `execve` since it's not allowed if other pthreads
  have been created. The fact that Haiku can't call `execve` from other threads
  than the principal thread of a process (a team in haiku jargon), is a
  discrepancy to POSIX and hence there is a [bug about
  it](https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/18665). (@Sylvain78, ocaml/dune#10953)
- Fix flag ordering in generated Merlin configurations (ocaml/dune#11503, @voodoos, fixes
  ocaml/merlin#1900, reported by @vouillon)

### Added

- Add `(format-dune-file <src> <dst>)` action. It provides a replacement to
  `dune format-dune-file` command.  (ocaml/dune#11166, @nojb)
- Allow the `--prefix` flag when configuring dune with `ocaml configure.ml`.
  This allows to set the prefix just like `$ dune install --prefix`. (ocaml/dune#11172,
  @rgrinberg)
- Allow arguments starting with `+` in preprocessing definitions (starting with
  `(lang dune 3.18)`). (@amonteiro, ocaml/dune#11234)
- Support for opam `(maintenance_intent ...)` in dune-project (ocaml/dune#11274, @art-w)
- Validate opam `maintenance_intent` (ocaml/dune#11308, @art-w)
- Support `not` in package dependencies constraints (ocaml/dune#11404, @art-w, reported
  by @hannesm)

### Changed

- Warn when failing to discover root due to reads failing. The previous
  behavior was to abort. (@KoviRobi, ocaml/dune#11173)
- Use shorter path for inline-tests artifacts. (@hhugo, ocaml/dune#11307)
- Allow dash in `dune init` project name (ocaml/dune#11402, @art-w, reported by @saroupille)
- On Windows, under heavy load, file delete operations can sometimes fail due to
  AV programs, etc. Guard against it by retrying the operation up to 30x with a
  1s waiting gap (ocaml/dune#11437, fixes ocaml/dune#11425, @MSoegtropIMC)
- Cache: we now only store the executable permission bit for files (ocaml/dune#11541,
  fixes ocaml/dune#11533, @ElectreAAS)
- Display negative error codes on Windows in hex which is the more customary
  way to display `NTSTATUS` codes (ocaml/dune#11504, @MisterDA)
