Add minimal test suite changes for elision enabled kernels

tst-mutex5 and 8 test some behaviour not required by POSIX,
that elision changes. This changes these tests to not check
this when elision is enabled at configure time.

Add elision to pthread_mutex_{try,timed,un}lock

Add elision paths to the basic mutex locks.

The normal path has a check for RTM and upgrades the lock
to RTM when available. Trylocks cannot automatically upgrade,
so they check for elision every time.

We use a 4 byte value in the mutex to store the lock
elision adaptation state. This is separate from the adaptive
spin state and uses a separate field.

Condition variables currently do not support elision.

Recursive mutexes and condition variables may be supported at some point,
but are not in the current implementation. Also "trylock" will
not automatically enable elision unless some other lock call
has been already called on the lock.

This version does not use IFUNC, so it means every lock has one
additional check for elision. Benchmarking showed the overhead
to be negligible.

Disable elision for any pthread_mutexattr_settype call

PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL requires deadlock for nesting, DEFAULT
does not. Since glibc uses the same value (0) disable elision
for any call to pthread_mutexattr_settype() with a 0 value.
This implies that a program can disable elision by doing
pthread_mutexattr_settype(&attr, PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL)

Based on a original proposal by Rich Felker.

Add lock elision to rwlocks

This code is very similar to the main pthread mutex code, but we have
to implement part of it in assembler.

The patch kit is large because there are so many combinations
of reader and writer locks, but it is fairly repetive.

The basic elision algorithm is very similar to normal mutexes:
a wrapper checks if the lock is free (both reader and writer)
We have to check both reader and writer because separating them
would require putting state on different cache lines.

The algorithm is very basic currently and may be tuned
more in the future.

No adaptation at this point, the elision will not automatically
disable itself. The programmer or user can do it explicitely though.

We use some padding in the internal rwlock as a elision flag.
This is 8 bytes on 64bits currently, but could be made smaller later
without compatibility problems (or to share some bytes with a
adaptation count). 32bit uses one byte.

Add a new distinctive PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL

There was a lot of discussion about the POSIX statement that
PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL "shall" deadlock for mutexes that
get re-acquired by the same thread.

Elided mutexes act like recursive locks and would only deadlock
sometimes (any time an abort happens, e.g. at program startup
or when context switches or syscalls happen), but not guaranteed
every time.

This does not apply to DEFAULT mutexes.  But currently in glibc DEFAULT and
NORMAL is the same number.

The original elision code always disabled elision for any
pthread_mutexattr_settype/setkind()

So what we do here is:
- Add a new numeric value for PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL
- Add a new symbol version for pthread_mutexattr_setkind
(and its aliases pthread_mutexattr_settype_np and __pthread_mutexattr_settype)
that disables elision for the new PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL value
- The compat version for the old symbol version always
disables elision when a 0 type (old ambigious DEFAULT/NORMAL)
is passed (behaviour before this patch)

The result is that old binaries that use pthread_mutexattr_setkind()
for NORMAL/DEFAULT/TIMED_NP will disable elision, and new programs that
use it with PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL only (but not default/timed) will
also disable elision. Any mutex not using pthread_mutexattr_setkind
or setting an ADAPTIVE type uses elision. The use of
pthread_mutexattr_setkind() for the default type is expected to be
rare, so this should not affect many programs.

Note an alternative would be to just disable nesting for these
normal mutexes (so always _xabort() before starting a transaction).
This would require additional checks in the fast path, and
since this case should be rare we just disable elision instead.

This adds new symbol versions to pthread, so the ABI test
files needed to be updated.

Thanks to Torvald Riegel, Roland McGrath, Richard Henderson, Rich Felker
for input on the discussion. This patch is based on the proposal from
Rich Felker, with some help from H.J. on the aliases.

Add vectorized getenv for glibc use

This adds a general "vectorized getenv" for glibc internal use.
The motivation is to allow subsystems to access environment variables
cheaply without having to rescan the environment completely.

The dynamic linker already walks the environment to look for its
LD_* variables. Extend this code to look for a number of
pre-registered GLIBC_* variables too. This can be done at basically
no additional cost. The only two variables currently pre-registered
are for the lock elision code.

For static builds which do not use the dynamic linker a similar
environment walking function is called at init time.

The variable values are saved in a global array that can be directly
accessed by libc and related libraries like libpthread.
