Instead of passing the address of a KernelArgumentBlock to libc.so for
initialization, use __loader_shared_globals() to initialize globals.
Most of the work happened in the previous CLs. This CL switches a few
KernelArgumentBlock::getauxval calls to [__bionic_]getauxval and stops
routing the KernelArgumentBlock address through the libc init functions.

(cherry picked from commit 746ad15912)
Initialize the __progname and environ global variables using
libc_shared_globals rather than KernelArgumentBlock.
Also: suppose the linker is invoked on an executable:
linker prog [args...]
The first argument passed to main() and constructor functions is "prog"
rather than "linker". For consistency, this CL changes the BSD
__progname global from "linker" to "prog".

We've been using #pragma once for new internal files, but let's be more bold.

KernelArgumentBlock is defined as a class in KernelArgumentBlock.h, but
forward declarations refer to it as a struct.
While this is essentially the same, the mismatch causes a compiler
warning in clang (and may cause warnings in future versions of gcc) in
code that is supposed to be compiled with -Werror.

There's now only one place where we deal with this stuff, it only needs to
be parsed once by the dynamic linker (rather than by each recipient), and it's
now easier for us to get hold of auxv data early on.

None of the supported ARCHs actually populate these sections,
so there is no point in keeping them in the binaries.

This change allows an executable to call its destructor functions
(declared with __attribute__((destructor))) to be properly called
when it normally exits.
Note that this is different from calling the destructors of a shared
library when it is unloaded with dlclose() or through program exit,
which are already supported.

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
