elf: Avoid using memalign for TLS allocations [BZ #17730]
Instead of a flag which indicates the pointer can be freed, dtv_t
now includes the pointer which should be freed.  Due to padding,
the size of dtv_t does not increase.

To avoid using memalign, the new allocate_dtv_entry function
allocates a sufficiently large buffer so that a sub-buffer
can be found in it which starts with an aligned pointer.  Both
the aligned and original pointers are kept, the latter for calling
free later.
