Based on a pair of patches from Intel:
https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/43909/https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/44903/
For x86, this patch supports _both_ the global that ARM/MIPS use
and the per-thread TLS entry (%gs:20) that GCC uses by default. This
lets us support binaries built with any x86 toolchain (right now,
the NDK is emitting x86 code that uses the global).
I've also extended the original tests to cover ARM/MIPS too, and
be a little more thorough for x86.

I gave up trying to use the usual thread-local buffer idiom; calls to
calloc(3) and free(3) from any of the "dl" functions -- which live in
the dynamic linker -- end up resolving to the dynamic linker's stubs.
I tried to work around that, but was just making things more complicated.
This alternative costs us a well-known TLS slot (instead of the
dynamically-allocated TLS slot we'd have used otherwise, so no difference
there), plus an extra buffer inside every pthread_internal_t.
