elf: Remove -fno-tree-loop-distribute-patterns usage on dl-support

Besides the option being gcc specific, this approach is still fragile
and not future proof since we do not know if this will be the only
optimization option gcc will add that transforms loops to memset
(or any libcall).

This patch adds a new header, dl-symbol-redir-ifunc.h, that can b
used to redirect the compiler generated libcalls to port the generic
memset implementation if required.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.
