Some libc changes were preventing the initialization call from being made.
The basic problem appears to be that libc_init_common.c is only built once,
and it's only built for the non-debug libc.

* commit 'ef0bd1857041ffde069cf52138aaf22c1af7130e':
Pass the elfdata pointer in a slot of the temporary TLS area.
This allows libc.so to run the C runtime initializer as soon as the
dynamic linker loads the shared library, i.e. before any other initializers
(e.g. static C++ constructors in other shared libraries the executable depends
on).
This also removes the bug where the initializers from the executable itself
were run twice: once by the dynamic linker, and another time by __libc_init
as defined by libc_init_dynamic.c
This is needed to properly initialize the C runtime when libc.so
is loaded by the dynamic linker.
Move the temporary TLS setup before the first system call, just
in case something really horrible happens, we won't crash when
trying to write an error code in 'errno'
Remove the broken TLS_SLOT_THREAD_ID setup. First, this slot
should normally receive the address of a pthread_internal_t,
not a kernel thread identifier. Second, it is never used by
the linker anyway.
Also remove an obsolete comment.

Provide slightly better diagnostic message in case of corruption.

Aligned the list of the function declared in std:: to
match gcc.
In the first cut, too many functions were included.
The test under system/extras/tests/bionic/libstdc++ already
has the correct (shorter) list.

* commit '03eabfe65e1e2c36f4d26c78a730fa19a3bdada3':
Fix the C library initialization to avoid calling static C++ constructors twice.
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.
