This pull request should (a) complete the documentation advised in #16163; (b) provide tests to exercise that documentation. Since this is non-urgent and may take some time to double-check, I'm going to label it 'defer-next-dev' -- but we can begin code review now. Thanks.

As we did in bda53d3, update description of these POSIX functions to
reflect the fact that they differ from the corresponding builtin
functions in that they require an explicit argument, i.e., they cannot
reply on an implicit $_.

Add tests to exercise this property in t/usage.t.

For: GH Perl#16163 (partial)
POSIX::umask(), unlike the builtin umask(), cannot rely upon an implicit
$_.  It needs an explicit argument when being called.

For: GH Perl#16163 (now complete)
