Dan Gohman 4eed038018 Switch from .init_array constructors to /proc/self/auxv. (#385)
* Switch from `.init_array` constructors to /proc/self/auxv.

In the linux_raw backend, switch from using a `.init_array` constructor
for obtaining the aux values to reading them from /proc/self/auxv. This avoids
problems in situation where other Rust code can run before the constructor,
potentially distrupting the `__environ` value.

Also, for the linux_raw backend, introduce a new "use-libc-auxv" feature,
which enables use of libc to read the aux values, instead of reading
them from /proc/self/auxv.

The "use-libc-auxv" option is enabled by default, because it's more
efficient and doesn't depend on /proc, so it's likely better for most
users.

Mustang, for its part, continues to be able to use the incoming auxv on
the stack because it controls program startup. Since it doesn't have to
worry about the hazards of /proc or QEMU, it can trust the incoming
values, and do less checking.

Fixes #382.

* Remove the param `init` function from the libc backend.

* Fix the no-std build.

* Fix the backends test to accept that the default options now depend on libc.

* Use `NonNull` in `check_raw_pointer`'s return type.

This allows it to pack the return value into a single pointer-sized
value.

* Update more code to the new `check_raw_pointer` API.

* Fix an unused-import warning.

* Fix copy+paste.

* Thread `check_elf_base` through `check_vdso_base` too.
