Replace __libc_multiple_libcs with __libc_initial flag
Change sbrk to fail for !__libc_initial (in the generic
implementation).  As a result, sbrk is (relatively) safe to use
for the __libc_initial case (from the main libc).  It is therefore
no longer necessary to avoid using it in that case (or updating the
brk cache), and the __libc_initial flag does not need to be updated
as part of dlmopen or static dlopen.

As before, direct brk system calls on Linux may lead to memory
corruption.
