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.
