Introduce a new flag ANDROID_DLEXT_RESERVED_ADDRESS_RECURSIVE which
instructs the linker to use the reserved address space to load all of
the newly-loaded libraries required by a dlopen() call instead of only
the main library. They will be loaded consecutively into that region if
they fit. The RELRO sections of all the loaded libraries will also be
considered for reading/writing shared RELRO data.
This will allow the WebView implementation to potentially consist of
more than one .so file while still benefiting from the RELRO sharing
optimisation, which would otherwise only apply to the "root" .so file.
Test: bionic-unit-tests (existing and newly added)

They are intended for platform use only and we shouldn't have them
in the public header file.

Shared namespaces clone the list of loaded native
libraries from the caller namespace. This allows
classloaders for bundled apps to share already loaded
libraries with default namespace.

The permitted_when_isolated_path is a way to white-list
directories not present in search-path. It is ignored for
not isolated namespaces.

The anonymous namespace is introduced to
handle cases when linker can not find the
caller. This usually happens when caller
code was not loaded by dynamic linker;
for example mono-generated code.

This flag allows to force loading of the library
in the case when for some reason multiple ELF files
share the same filename (because the already-loaded
library has been removed and overwritten, for example).

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.

Add a function "android_dlopen_ext()", defined in <android/dlext.h>.
This is an extended version of dlopen() which takes a struct for passing
additional parameters for Android-specific functionality. This will be
used to support RELRO section sharing between separate processes.
