This patch replaces .S versions of x86 crtfiles with .c which are much
easier to support. Some of the files are matching .c version of Arm
crtfiles. x86 files required some cleanup anyway and this cleanup actually
led to matching Arm files.
I didn't change anything to share the same crt*.c between x86 and Arm. I
prefer to keep them separate for a while in case any change is required
for one of the arch, but it's good thing to do in the following patches.

If you need to build your own linker to get debugging, the debugging
is never available when you need it.

According ELF spec re. DT_SYMBOLIC:
This element's presence in a shared object library alters the dynamic
linker's symbol resolution algorithm for references within the library.
Instead of starting a symbol search with the executable file, the
dynamic linker starts from the shared object itself. If the shared
object fails to supply the referenced symbol, the dynamic linker then
searches the executable file and other shared objects as usual.
This change implements the last part.

NVIDIA binary blobs construct strings to pass to dlopen(3) that
contain '/' but require that we fall back to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

We'll need a lot more refactoring of this code before we can reduce
the granularity, but this is a step forward.

Request memory from the system when needed instead of having a fixed
array for soinfo structs. Note that malloc() et al can't be used in
linker, so use mmap() instead.

Also ensure that dlopen(3) errors always include the name of the library we
failed to open.
Also fix a bug where we'd fall back to searching LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the
built-in paths for names that include slashes.

If an executable contain copy relocations, other references
to the symbol it points to should be preempted and made to
point to the copy instead.
Also, the linker should make sure the target area has
sufficient space to contain the copy. It also checks
whether the library that supplies the symbol is built
with -Bsymbolic, and errors out if this is the case.

I still want to break linker_format out into its own library so we can reuse
it for malloc debugging and so forth. (There are many similar pieces of code
in bionic, but the linker's one seems to be the most complete/functional.)

error: C99 designator 'name' outside aggregate initializer
G++ 4.7+ can't handle some of C99 designated initializers.
Most likely it's just not implemented yet. Other possible workarounds is
to compile this as C not C++ or define name as char* instead of char[SIZE].
