Depending on how ld.config.txt is configured, there can be multiple
built-in namespaces created by the linker from the beginning of a
process. android_get_exported_namespace is a platform only API for
getting a handle (android_namespace_t*) to one of the built-in namespaces
with given name. The returned namespace can then be given to
android_dlopen_ext in order to explicitly specify the target namespace
where the library is searched and loaded from.
Note that this function only returns 'exported' namespaces created via
ld.config.txt file. In order to export a namespace, the visible property
should be set to true:
namespace.<name>.visible = true
Namespaces are hidden by default. Hidden namespaces and namespaces
that are created programmatically, notably 'classloader-namespace',
aren't returned by this function.
Bug: 36851137
Test: confirmed that namespaces created with ld.config.txt is retrieved.
Test: linker-unit-tests passes

(cherry picked from commit d7c4832e6a)
This commit updates interface of libdl.c.
1. android_init_namespaces is replaces with android_init_anonymous_namespace
2. added 2 arguments to android_create_namespace to specify linked namespace
and the list of shared libraries sonames.
3. symbol lookup does not get past boundary libraries (added check and test for it).

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.
