Alex Richardson b54a59f3ba Reduce size of rtld by 22% by pulling in less code from libc
Currently RTLD is linked against libc_nossp_pic which means that any libc
symbol used in rtld can pull in a lot of depedencies. This was causing
symbol such as __libc_interposing and all the pthread stubs to be included
in RTLD even though they are not required. It turns out most of these
dependencies can easily be avoided by providing overrides inside of rtld.

This change is motivated by CHERI, where we have an experimental ABI that
requires additional relocation processing to allow the use of function
pointers inside of rtld. Instead of adding this self-relocation code to
RTLD I attempted to remove most function pointers from RTLD and discovered
that most of them came from the libc dependencies instead of being actually
used inside rtld.

A nice side-effect of this change is that rtld is now 22% smaller on amd64.

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
0x21eb6	  0xce0	  0xe60	 145910	  239f6	/home/alr48/ld-elf-x86.before.so.1
0x1a6ed	  0x728	  0xdd8	 113645	  1bbed	/home/alr48/ld-elf-x86.after.so.1

The number of R_X86_64_RELATIVE relocations that need to be processed on
startup has also gone down from 368 to 187 (almost 50% less).
