x86: Set dl_hwcap from CPU features hjl/hwcap/master
On x86, the usage of AT_HWCAP in glibc is obsolete since addition of
dl_x86_cpu_features.  dl_hwcap, which was set from AT_HWCAP, is used by
dynamic linker to build an array of hardware capability names, which are
added to search path when loading shared object.  dl_hwcap was unused on
x86-64 and only SSE2 was used on i386.

This patch sets dl_hwcap with new hardware capabilities from CPU
features.  Currently, 2 capabilities, SSE2 and AVX2, are supported.
The maximum number of hardware capabilities is 64.  Since x86-64
includes SSE2, SSE2 is skipped on x86-64.  dl_x86_cap_flags is kepted
for i386 and is used by _dl_show_auxv.  dl_x86_hwcap_flags is added
for new hardware capabilities.
