fix failure of ungetc and ungetwc to work on files in eof status

these functions were written to handle clearing eof status, but failed to account for the __toread function's handling of eof. with this patch applied, __toread still returns EOF when the file is in eof status, so that read operations will fail, but it also sets up valid buffer pointers for read mode, which are set to the end of the buffer rather than the beginning in order to make the whole buffer available to ungetc/ungetwc. minor changes to __uflow were needed since it's now possible to have non-zero buffer pointers while in eof status. as made, these changes remove a 'fast path' bypassing the function call to __toread, which could be reintroduced with slightly different logic, but since ordinary files have a syscall in f->read, optimizing the code path does not seem worthwhile. the __stdio_read function is also updated not to zero the read buffer pointers on eof/error. while not necessary for correctness, this change avoids the overhead of calling __toread in ungetc after reaching eof, and it also reduces code size and increases consistency with the fmemopen read operation which does not zero the pointers.
