to be compatible with symbol versioning support as implemented by

means:
o Remove Elf64_Quarter,
o Redefine Elf64_Half to be 16-bit,
o Redefine Elf64_Word to be 32-bit,
o Add Elf64_Xword and Elf64_Sxword for 64-bit entities,
o Use Elf_Size in MI code to abstract the difference between
Elf32_Word and Elf64_Word.
o Add Elf_Ssize as the signed counterpart of Elf_Size.

implementation in case default one provided by rtld is
not suitable.
Consolidate various identical MD lock implementation into
