[Bug libc/15794] move AT_* constants definition from elf.h into sysdeps (bits) directory

--- Comment #3 from Petr.Salinger at seznam dot cz ---
I would rather consider the AT_* constants as constants in errno.h
There is a common base, with the same numbers (0-9).
But there are also some constants with same meaning and different numbers
and constants with same number but completely different meaning.

The original problem is
