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

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.)

Also make the errors more readable, since none of us seemed to know
what they actually meant. The new style is still as verbose as the
old, but that's probably necessary in the absence of chained exceptions
in C. Here's what you'd see if you try to boot after removing
libsurfaceflinger.so:
32267 32267 E AndroidRuntime: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Cannot load library: (linker.c:1629, pid 32259) soinfo_link_image: could not load library "libsystem_server.so" needed by "libandroid_servers.so"; caused by (linker.c:1629, pid 32259) soinfo_link_image: could not load library "libsurfaceflinger.so" needed by "libsystem_server.so"; caused by (linker.c:709, pid 32259) load_library: library "libsurfaceflinger.so" not found
This patch also fixes almost all of the compiler warnings.

This provides a mini-printf implementation that reduces the
size of the dynamic linker by 25 KB, by preventing the drag of
formatting-related routines from the C library.
Also allow traces to be sent to the log, instead of stdout.
NOTE: You now need to modify Android.mk to enable/disable debug
output.
