Use $(BUILD_SYSTEM)/base_rules to build it as custom module, so that
it's exposed to utilities like mm/mmma etc.

Spawn 20 child processes, have them all load the library, and compare
the total PSS used in the case where we use dlopen() and the case where
we use android_dlopen_ext() with relro sharing. We assume we will save
at least 10% of the memory; in practise this example saves 40% or more
so this should be a reasonable threshold.

If the file has no relro segment, the generated relro file will have
length 0, which caused mmap to fail. If the relro file has nonzero size,
but is too short (e.g. because it's for the wrong version of the
library), the linker would segfault while comparing the data. Fix both
these issues: don't try to map a zero length file, and don't try to
compare data that would be beyond the end of the file.
Improve test to explicitly generate two versions of the library: one
with -z relro, and one with -z norelro, so we can test both cases; also
explicitly test the case where the relro file has length 0.

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.
