Ordinary executables have a PT_INTERP path of /system/bin/linker[64], but:
- executables using bootstrap Bionic use /system/bin/bootstrap/linker[64]
- ASAN executables use /system/bin/linker_asan[64]
gdb appears to use the PT_INTERP path for debugging the dynamic linker
before the linker has initialized the r_debug module list. If the linker's
l_name differs from PT_INTERP, then gdb assumes that the linker has been
unloaded and searches for a new solib using the linker's l_name path.
gdb may print a warning like:
warning: Temporarily disabling breakpoints for unloaded shared library "$OUT/symbols/system/bin/linker64"
If I'm currently debugging the linker when this happens, gdb apparently
doesn't load debug symbols for the linker. This can be worked around with
gdb's "sharedlibrary" command, but it's better to avoid it.
Previously, when PT_INTERP was the bootstrap linker, but l_name was
"/system/bin/linker[64]", gdb would find the default non-bootstrap linker
binary and (presumably) get confused about symbol addresses.
(Also, remove the "static std::string exe_path" variable because the
soinfo::realpath_ field is a std::string that already lasts until exit. We
already use it for link_map_head.l_name in notify_gdb_of_load.)

Given that we have both linker and linker64, I didn't really want to have
to have ldd and ldd64, so this change just adds the --list option to the
linkers and a shell script wrapper "ldd" that calls the appropriate
linker behind the scenes.

In addition to ORIGIN, LIB is now expanded to either lib or lib64
depending on the ABI in the DT_RUNPATH.
Test: To be added (can't be added to AOSP directly since there are
internal tests that have to be updated as well)

Change three things regarding the work around to the fact that init is
special:
1) Only first stage init is special, so we change the check to include
accessing /proc/self/exe, which if is available, means that we're
not first stage init and do not need any work arounds.
2) Fix the fact that /init may be a symlink and may need readlink()
3) Suppress errors from realpath_fd() since these are expected to fail
due to /proc not being mounted.

Test: sailfish boots without the audit generated from calling stat()
on /init and without the errors from realpath_fd()

init is now built as a dynamic executable, so the dynamic linker has to
be able to run in the init process. However, since init is launched so
early, even /dev/* and /proc/* file systems are not mounted and thus
some APIs that rely on the paths do not work. The dynamic linker now
goes alternative path when it is running in the init process.
For example, /proc/self/exe is not read for the init since we always now
the path of the init (/init). Also, arc4random* APIs are not used since
the APIs rely on /dev/urandom. Linker now does not randomize library
loading order and addresses when running in the init process.

The tls_nodelete state should apply to load_group not
isolated soinfo. This actually also means that multiple
soinfos may have tls_counter on their dso_handles.
This change replaces TLS_NODELETE flag with secondary counter.
Note that access to the secondary counter (located inside soinfo)
is pretty expensive because it requires soinfo lookup by dso_handle
whereas dso_handle counter is much faster. This is why it is updated
only when dso_handle counter starts or hits 0.

Explicitly say "warning" for warnings, explicitly say what action
we're going to take (such as "(ignoring)"), always provide a link to
our documentation when there is one, explicitly say what API level the
behavior changes at, and explicitly say why we're allowing the misbehavior
for now.

This change addresses multiple problems introduced by
02586a2a34
1. In the case of unsuccessful dlopen the failure guard is triggered
for two namespaces which leads to double unload.
2. In the case where load_tasks includes libraries from 3 and more
namespaces it results in incorrect linking of libraries shared between
second and third/forth and so on namespaces.
The root cause of these problems was recursive call to find_libraries.
It does not do what it is expected to do. It does not form new load_tasks
list and immediately jumps to linking local_group. Not only this skips
reference counting it also will include unlinked but accessible library
from third (and fourth and fifth) namespaces in invalid local group. The
best case scenario here is that for 3 or more namesapces this will
fail to link. The worse case scenario it will link the library
incorrectly with will lead to very hard to catch bugs.
This change removes recursive call and replaces it with explicit list of
local_groups which should be linked. It also revisits the way we do
reference counting - with this change the reference counts are updated after
after libraries are successfully loaded.
Also update soinfo_free to abort in case when linker tries to free same
soinfo for the second time - this makes linker behavior less undefined.

This library is used by a number of different libraries in the system.
Make it easy for platform libraries to use this library and create
an actual exported include file.
Change the names of the functions to reflect the new name of the library.
Run clang_format on the async_safe_log.cpp file since the formatting is
all over the place.

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).

Move soinfo and globals out of linker.cpp to
separate files.
Breaking up huge linker.cpp into smaller peaces
in order to make it easier to extract part of the
code that belongs to libdl.so and remove parts of
the code that do not belong to linker
(refactoring part 2 of many)
