This does not change the implementation of conditional variables
since we're waiting for other system components to properly use
pthread_condattr_init/setpshared before that.
Also remove an obsolete x86 source file.

Private futexes are a recent kernel addition: faster futexes that cannot be
shared between processes. This patch uses them by default, unless the PROCESS_SHARED
attribute flag is used when creating a mutex and/or conditional variable.
Also introduces pthread_condattr_init/destroy/setpshared/getpshared.

Any of the setuid functions now updates /acct/uid/ with its own tid
before changing users. This is so we can properly account for cpu time
per uid.

Only provide an implementation for ARM at the moment, since
it requires specific assembly fragments (the standard syscall
stubs cannot be used because the child returns in a different
stack).
The problem was due to the fact that, in the case of dynamic executables,
the dynamic linker calls the DT_PREINIT_ARRAY, DT_INIT and DT_INIT_ARRAY
constructors when loading shared libraries and dynamic executables,
*before* calling the executable's entry point (i.e. arch-$ARCH/bionic/crtbegin_dynamic.c)
which in turns call __libc_init() in libc.so, as defined by bionic/libc_init_dynamic.c
The latter did call these constructors array again, mistakenly.
The patch also updates the documentation of many related functions.
Also adds a new section to linker/README.TXT explaining restrictions on
C library usage.
The patch has been tested on a Dream for stability issues with
proprietary blobs:
- H264 decoding works
- Camera + Video recording works
- GPS works
- Sensors work
The tests in system/extra/tests/bionic/libc/common/test_static_cpp_mutex.cpp has been
run and shows the static C++ constructor being called only once.
