dlfcn: Failures after dlmopen should not terminate process [BZ #24772]
Commit 9e78f6f6e7134a5f299cc8de77370218f8019237 ("Implement
_dl_catch_error, _dl_signal_error in libc.so [BZ #16628]") has the
side effect that distinct namespaces, as created by dlmopen, now have
separate implementations of the rtld exception mechanism.  This means
that the call to _dl_catch_error from libdl in a secondary namespace
does not actually install an exception handler because the
thread-local variable catch_hook in the libc.so copy in the secondary
namespace is distinct from that of the base namepace.  As a result, a
dlsym/dlopen/... failure in a secondary namespace terminates the process
with a dynamic linker error because it looks to the exception handler
mechanism as if no handler has been installed.

This commit restores GLRO (dl_catch_error) and uses it to set the
handler in the base namespace.
