rtld: Clean up PT_NOTE and add PT_GNU_PROPERTY handling
Add generic code to handle PT_GNU_PROPERTY notes. Invalid
content is ignored, _dl_process_pt_gnu_property is always called
after PT_LOAD segments are mapped and it has no failure modes.
Currently only one NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 note is handled, which
contains target specific properties: the _dl_process_gnu_property
hook is called for each property.

The old _dl_process_pt_note and _rtld_process_pt_note differ in how
the program header is read.  The old _dl_process_pt_note is called
before PT_LOAD segments are mapped and _rtld_process_pt_note is called
after PT_LOAD segments are mapped. The old _rtld_process_pt_note is
removed and _dl_process_pt_note is always called after PT_LOAD
segments are mapped and now it has no failure modes.

The program headers are scanned backwards so that PT_NOTE can be
skipped if PT_GNU_PROPERTY exists.
