Problem:
- `typedef`s are read backwards making it confusing.
- `using` statements can be used in template aliases.
- `using` provides similarity to most other C++ syntax.
- C++ core guidelines say to prefer `using` over `typedef`:

Solution:
- Switch these where appropriate.

(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
This was just an alias for "unix" that I added early on back when there
was some belief that we might be compatible with OpenBSD. We're clearly
never going to be compatible with their pledges so just drop the alias.
