Populate the stack canaries from the kernel supplied
AT_RANDOM value, which doesn't involve any system calls.
This is slightly faster (6 fewer syscalls) and avoids
unnecessarily reading /dev/urandom, which depletes entropy.

This reverts commit f4b34b6c39.
The revert was only meant to apply to the jb-mr1 branch, but accidentally
leaked out into AOSP. This revert-revert gets AOSP master and internal
master back in sync.
If the platform code is compiled with -mcpu=cortex-a15, then without this
change prebuilt libraries built against -march=armv7 cannot resolve the
dependency on __aeabi_idiv (provided by libgcc.a).
Bug: 7961327
cherry-picked from internal master.

Pull a new version of auxvec.h from the upstream Linux
kernel at commit b719f43059903820c31edb30f4663a2818836e7f
These files were generated using the following commands:
cd bionic/libc/kernel
./tools/clean_header.py -u ../../../external/kernel-headers/original/uapi/linux/auxvec.h
./tools/clean_header.py -u ../../../external/kernel-headers/original/linux/auxvec.h
./tools/clean_header.py -u ../../../external/kernel-headers/original/asm-x86/auxvec.h
This change is needed to get AT_RANDOM defined.

The dynamic linker applies relro before the preinit and init
arrays are executed, so we should be consistent for statically
linked executables.

Add signalfd() call to bionic.
Adding the signalfd call was done in 3 steps:
- add signalfd4 system call (function name and syscall
number) to libc/SYSCALLS.TXT
- generate all necessary headers by calling
libc/tools/gensyscalls.py. This patch is adding
the generated files since the build system
does not call gensyscalls.py.
- create the signalfd wrapper in signalfd.cpp and add
the function prototype to sys/signalfd.h
(cherry-pick of 0c11611c11, modified to
work with older versions of GCC still in use on some branches.)

Spotted while running the tests on MIPS, where sigset_t is
actually large enough. The bits in sigset_t are used such that
signal 1 is represented by bit 0, so the range of signals is
actually [1, 8*sizeof(sigset_t)]; it seems clearer to reword
the code in terms of valid bit offsets [0, 8*sizeof(sigset_t)),
which leads to the usual bounds checking idiom.

Previously we'd been relying on getting the machine-specific <endian.h>
instead of the top-level <endian.h>, and <sys/endian.h> was basically broken.
Now, with this patch and the previous patch we should have <endian.h>
and <sys/endian.h> behaving the same. This is basically how NetBSD's endian.h
works, and was probably how ours was originally intended to work.

raise() should use pthread_kill() in a pthreads environment.
For bionic this means it should always be used.

These checks haven't been as useful as I hoped, and it's
causing a false positive finding. Remove the overlap
compile time checks.
