aarch64: handle STO_AARCH64_VARIANT_PCS

Avoid lazy binding of symbols that may follow a variant PCS with different
register usage convention from the base PCS.

Currently the lazy binding entry code does not preserve all the registers
required for AdvSIMD and SVE vector calls.  Saving and restoring all
registers unconditionally may break existing binaries, even if they never
use vector calls, because of the larger stack requirement for lazy
resolution, which can be significant on an SVE system.

The solution is to mark all symbols in the symbol table that may follow
a variant PCS so the dynamic linker can handle them specially.  In this
patch such symbols are always resolved at load time, not lazily.

So currently LD_AUDIT for variant PCS symbols are not supported, for that
the _dl_runtime_profile entry needs to be changed e.g. to unconditionally
save/restore all registers (but pass down arg and retval registers to
pltentry/exit callbacks according to the base PCS).

This patch also removes a __builtin_expect from the modified code because
the branch prediction hint did not seem useful.

	* sysdeps/aarch64/dl-dtprocnum.h: New file.
	* sysdeps/aarch64/dl-machine.h (DT_AARCH64): Define.
	(elf_machine_runtime_setup): Handle DT_AARCH64_VARIANT_PCS.
	(elf_machine_lazy_rel): Check STO_AARCH64_VARIANT_PCS and bind such
	symbols at load time.
	* sysdeps/aarch64/linkmap.h (struct link_map_machine): Add variant_pcs.
