__libc_shared_globals() is available in dynamic modules as soon as
relocation has finished (i.e. after ifuncs run). Before ifuncs have run,
the android_set_abort_message() function already doesn't work because it
calls public APIs via the PLT. (If this matters, we can use a static
bool variable to enable android_set_abort_message after libc
initialization).
__libc_shared_globals() is hidden, so it's available in the linker
immediately (i.e. before relocation). TLS memory (e.g. errno) currently
isn't accessible until after relocation, but a later patch fixes that.

Previously, the address of the global variable was communicated from the
dynamic linker to libc.so using a field of KernelArgumentBlock, which is
communicated using the TLS_SLOT_BIONIC_PREINIT slot.
As long as this function isn't called during relocations (i.e. while
executing an ifunc), it always return a non-NULL value. If it's called
before its PLT entry is relocated, I expect a crash.
I removed the __libc_init_shared_globals function. It's currently empty,
and I don't think there's one point in libc's initialization where
shared globals should be initialized.

Use <android-base/macros.h> instead where possible, and move the bionic
macros out of the way of the libbase ones. Yes, there are folks who manage
to end up with both included at once (thanks OpenGL!), and cleaning that
up doesn't seem nearly as practical as just making this change.

Add two functions to allow objects that own a file descriptor to
enforce that only they can close their file descriptor.
Use them in FILE* and DIR*.

There were a bunch more unreasonable/incorrect ones, but these ones
seemed legit. Nothing very interesting, though.

Correct the comment, and remove the unused functionality. getauxval(3) does
now set errno to let you know it failed to find anything, but since none of
this function's callers care anyway it seems safer to leave errno untouched
until we actually have a demonstrated need for it.

Remove the linker's reliance on BSD cruft and use the glibc-style
ElfW macro. (Other code too, but the linker contains the majority
of the code that needs to work for Elf32 and Elf64.)
All platforms need dl_iterate_phdr_static, so it doesn't make sense
to have that part of the per-architecture configuration.

This adds __libc_fatal, cleans up the internal logging code a bit more,
and switches suitable callers over to __libc_fatal. In addition to logging,
__libc_fatal stashes the message somewhere that the debuggerd signal handler
can find it before calling abort.
In the debuggerd signal handler, we pass this address to debuggerd so that
it can come back with ptrace to read the message and present it to the user.

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.
