This matches what frameworks/base does with Build.VERSION and means that
bionic's version number will always sort >= than any released version.
This should prevent confusion in code that builds both against bionic
and the NDK.
(Note that <sys/cdefs.h> drags this in, so it's always in the namespace.)
Bug: 14613709
Change-Id: I91fb745920e848a6b20f2f5797c0a7d6cde6c032
Add flags and a file descriptor to android_dlopen_ext() to allow writing
the RELRO section of the loaded library to a file after relocation
processing, and to allow mapping identical pages from the file over the
top of relocated memory in another process. Explicitly comparing the
pages is required in case a page contains a reference to a symbol
defined in another library loaded at a random base address.

Add flags and parameters to android_dlopen_ext() to allow loading a
library at an already-reserved fixed address. If the library to be
loaded will not fit within the space reserved, then the linker will
either fail, or allocate its own address space as usual, according to
which flag has been specified. This behaviour only applies to the
specific library requested; any other libraries loaded as dependencies
will be loaded in the normal fashion.
There is a new gtest included to cover the functionality added.

Add a function "android_dlopen_ext()", defined in <android/dlext.h>.
This is an extended version of dlopen() which takes a struct for passing
additional parameters for Android-specific functionality. This will be
used to support RELRO section sharing between separate processes.

Add a new header that defines __ANDROID_API__ as a constant integer
corresponding to the current native API level. This header is included
by <sys/cdefs.h>
Change-Id: Ib4774e247b395991266245815a24292afc919848
NOTE: This header is already provided by the NDK's platform headers.
for levels 3 to 9.
