assert: Do not use stderr in libc-internal assert
Redirect internal assertion failures to __libc_assert_fail, based on
based on __libc_message, which writes directly to STDERR_FILENO
and calls abort.  Also disable message translation and reword the
error message slightly (adjusting stdlib/tst-bz20544 accordingly).

As a result of these changes, malloc no longer needs its own
redefinition of __assert_fail.

__libc_assert_fail needs to be stubbed out during rtld dependency
analysis because the rtld rebuilds turn __libc_assert_fail into
__assert_fail, which is unconditionally provided by elf/dl-minimal.c.

This change is not possible for the public assert macro and its
__assert_fail function because POSIX requires that the diagnostic
is written to stderr.
