[PATCH v3 0/5] fix ifunc with static pie [BZ #27072]

v3:
- refactor tunables: move internals out of dl-tunables.h
- use generated max string length in the tunables list
  instead of magic values.

v2:
- check PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN for --enable-static-pie
- change string buffer sizes in the tunables
- fix env_alias == NULL logic in __tunables_init
- move __ehdr_start processing after self relocation


force pushed into nsz/bug27072 branch (with a gcc8 bug
workaround for aarch64)

Issues that are not addressed:
- tunables try to allocate memory even with non-suid exe.
  allocation is only needed for rewriting the GLIBC_TUNABLES
  env var. i think a case can be made that if anything there
  is TUNABLE_SECLEVEL_SXID_ERASE then this env var would be
  simply dropped.
- tunable list is not optimized for compactness.
- all symbols are forced hidden in libc.a, but i think lib*.a
  should do the same. (other than lib*_nonshared.a)

Szabolcs Nagy (5):
  configure: Require PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN for static pie
  Make libc symbols hidden in static PIE
  elf: Make the tunable struct definition internal only
  elf: Avoid RELATIVE relocs in __tunables_init
  csu: Move static pie self relocation later [BZ #27072]
