The x86_64 build was failing because clone.S had a call to __thread_entry which
was being added to a different intermediate .a on the way to making libc.so,
and the linker couldn't guarantee statically that such a relocation would be
possible.
ld: error: out/target/product/generic_x86_64/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libc_common_intermediates/libc_common.a(clone.o): requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '__thread_entry' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC
This patch addresses that by ensuring that the caller and callee end up in the
same intermediate .a. While I'm here, I've tried to clean up some of the mess
that led to this situation too. In particular, this removes libc/private/ from
the default include path (except for the DNS code), and splits out the DNS
code into its own library (since it's a weird special case of upstream NetBSD
code that's diverged so heavily it's unlikely ever to get back in sync).
There's more cleanup of the DNS situation possible, but this is definitely a
step in the right direction, and it's more than enough to get x86_64 building
cleanly.

Move the implementation of writing to the system property area
from init to bionic, next to the reader implementation. This
will allow full property testing to be added to bionic tests.
Add new accessor and waiting functions to hide the implementation
from watchprops and various bionic users.
Also hide some of the implementation details of the property area
from init by moving them into _system_properties.h, and other details
from everybody by moving them into system_properties.h.

We only need one logging API, and I prefer the one that does no
allocation and is thus safe to use in any context.
Also use O_CLOEXEC when opening the /dev/log files.
Move everything logging-related into one header file.

name server addresses are read from the dns
cache associated wih the interface on which
the request shall be done.
processes which has requested to issue dns request
using specific interface are now proxied to netd.
added methods to attach/detach a process to a specific
dns cache/interface.
added getaddrinfoforinface method which takes an
interface as an argument.

This happens too frequently. We should flush a per-interface cache
when it's dns server addrs changes.

NOTE: This is a back-port from the internal HC branch.
This patch fixes a leak that occurs when creating a new
thread-specific DNS resolver state object.
Essentially, each thread that calls gethostbyname() or getaddrinfo()
at least once will leak a small memory block. Another leak happens
anytime these functions are called after a change of the network
settings.
The leak is insignificant and hard to notice on typical programs.
However, netd tends to create one new thread for each DNS request
it processes, and quickly grows in size after a > 20 hours.
The same problem is seen in other system processes that tend to
create one thread per request too.
The leak occured becasue res_ninit() was called twice when creating
a new thread-specific DNS resolver state in _res_get_thread().
This function could not properly reset an existing thread and was
leaking a memory block.
The patch does two things:
- First, it fixes res_ninit() to prevent any leakage when resetting
the state of a given res_state instance.
- Second, it modifies the _res_get_thread() implementation to
make it more explicit, and avoid calling res_ninit() twice
in a row on first-time creation.
