[PATCH 1/4] elf: Introduce the rtld-stubbed-symbols makefile variable

[Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com>]

This generalizes a mechanism used for stack-protector support, so
that it can be applied to other symbols if required.

Tested on i686-linux-gnu without the stack protector, and on
x86_64-linux-gnu with stack-protector-strong.
