The .note.android.ident section is only used by GDB, which doesn't
care what section type the section is, but it would be convenient
for readelf -n to be able to find the section too.
The old way of getting the .note.android.ident section to be of type
SH_NOTE involved compiling from .c to .s using gcc, running sed to
change progbits to note, and then compiling from .s to .o using gcc.
Since crtbrand.c only contains a section containing data, a
crtbrand.S can be checked in that will compile on all platforms,
avoiding the need for sed.
Also add crtbrand.o to crtbegin_so.o so that libraries also get
the note, and to the crt workaround in arm libc.so.

This is the first patch out of a series of patches that add support for
AArch64, the new 64bit execution state of the ARMv8 Architecture. The
patches add support for LP64 programming model.
The patch adds:
* "arch-aarch64" to the architecture directories.
* "arch-aarch64/include" - headers used by libc
* "arch-aarch64/bionic":
- crtbegin, crtend support;
- aarch64 specific syscall stubs;
- setjmp, clone, vfork assembly files.

The x86_64 build was failing because clone.S had a call to __thread_entry which
was being added to a different intermediate .a on the way to making libc.so,
and the linker couldn't guarantee statically that such a relocation would be
possible.
ld: error: out/target/product/generic_x86_64/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libc_common_intermediates/libc_common.a(clone.o): requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '__thread_entry' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC
This patch addresses that by ensuring that the caller and callee end up in the
same intermediate .a. While I'm here, I've tried to clean up some of the mess
that led to this situation too. In particular, this removes libc/private/ from
the default include path (except for the DNS code), and splits out the DNS
code into its own library (since it's a weird special case of upstream NetBSD
code that's diverged so heavily it's unlikely ever to get back in sync).
There's more cleanup of the DNS situation possible, but this is definitely a
step in the right direction, and it's more than enough to get x86_64 building
cleanly.

Got it all wrong on first patch. Somehow that didn't affect system
build, neither arm nor x86... something to think about.
