Default to --with-default-link=no (bug 25812)
This is necessary to place the libio vtables into the RELRO segment. New tests elf/tst-relro-ldso and elf/tst-relro-libc are added to verify that this is what actually happens. The new tests fail on ia64 due to lack of (default) RELRO support inbutils, so they are XFAILed there. (cherry picked from commit 198abcbb94618730dae1b3f4393efaa49e0ec8c7)
