Wean mtrace away from the malloc hooks and move them into the debug
DSO. Split the API away from the implementation so that we can add
the API to libc.so as well as libc_malloc_debug.so, with the libc
implementations being empty.
Update localplt data since memalign no longer has any callers after
this change.

Split the mcheck implementation into the debugging hooks and API so
that the API can be replicated in libc and libc_malloc_debug.so. The
libc APIs always result in failure.
The mcheck implementation has also been moved entirely into
libc_malloc_debug.so and with it, all of the hook initialization code
can now be moved into the debug library. Now the initialization can
be done independently of libc internals.
With this patch, libc_malloc_debug.so can no longer be used with older
libcs, which is not its goal anyway. tst-vfork3 breaks due to this
since it spawns shell scripts, which in turn execute using the system
glibc. Move the test to tests-container so that only the built glibc
is used.
This move also fixes bugs in the mcheck version of memalign and
realloc, thus allowing removal of the tests from tests-mcheck
exclusion list.

Remove all malloc hook uses from core malloc functions and move it
into a new library libc_malloc_debug.so. With this, the hooks now no
longer have any effect on the core library.
libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded
to get hooks functionality back so that the debugging features that
depend on the hooks, i.e. malloc-check, mcheck and mtrace work again.
Without the preloaded DSO these debugging features will be nops.
These features will be ported away from hooks in subsequent patches.
Similarly, legacy applications that need hooks functionality need to
preload libc_malloc_debug.so.
The symbols exported by libc_malloc_debug.so are maintained at exactly
the same version as libc.so.
Finally, static binaries will no longer be able to use malloc
debugging features since they cannot preload the debugging DSO.
