elf: Avoid using memalign for TLS allocations [BZ #17730]
Instead of a flag which indicates the pointer can be freed, dtv_t now includes the pointer which should be freed. Due to padding, the size of dtv_t does not increase. To avoid using memalign, the new allocate_dtv_entry function allocates a sufficiently large buffer so that a sub-buffer can be found in it which starts with an aligned pointer. Both the aligned and original pointers are kept, the latter for calling free later.
