Avoid zero-length array at the end of struct link_map [BZ #25097]
l_audit ends up as an internal array with _rtld_global, and GCC 10
warns about this.
This commit does not change the layout of _rtld_global, so it is
suitable for backporting. Future changes could allocate more of the
audit state dynamically and remove it from always-allocated data
structures, to optimize the common case of inactive auditing.
