    aarch64: Use generic argv adjustment in ld.so [BZ #23293]
    
    When an executable is invoked as
    
      ./ld.so [ld.so-args] ./exe [exe-args]
    
    then the argv is adujusted in ld.so before calling the entry point of
    the executable so ld.so args are not visible to it.  On most targets
    this requires moving argv, env and auxv on the stack to ensure correct
    stack alignment at the entry point.  This had several issues:
    
    - The code for this adjustment on the stack is written in asm as part
      of the target specific ld.so _start code which is hard to maintain.
    
    - The adjustment is done after _dl_start returns, where it's too late
      to update GLRO(dl_auxv), as it is already readonly, so it points to
      memory that was clobbered by the adjustment. This is bug 23293.
    
    - _environ is also wrong in ld.so after the adjustment, but it is
      likely not used after _dl_start returns so this is not user visible.
    
    - _dl_argv was updated, but for this it was moved out of relro, which
      changes security properties across targets unnecessarily.
    
    This patch introduces a generic _dl_start_args_adjust function that
    handles the argument adjustments after ld.so processed its own args
    and before relro protection is applied.  It sets _dl_skip_args to 0 so
    the existing adjustment in asm is not invoked.  Each target has to
    opt-in to use this new adjustment since some targets don't need it.
    Once all targets are updated, _dl_argv declaration can be simplified.
    
    A new _dl_start_argptr was introduced because the original sp is not
    passed to dl_main which now has to do the adjustments.
    
    --
    v2:
    - use p != NULL, and a_type != AT_NULL
    - remove the confusing paragraph from the commit message.
