The fix for BZ#22716 replacde LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS with
LD_TRACE_PRELINKING so mtrace could record executable address
position.
To provide the same information, LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS is
extended where a value or '2' also prints the executable address
as well. It avoid adding another loader environment variable
to be used solely for mtrace. The vDSO will be printed as
a default library (with '=>' pointing the same name), which is
ok since both mtrace and ldd already handles it.
The mtrace script is changed to also parse the new format. To
correctly support PIE and non-PIE executables, both the default
mtrace address and the one calculated as used (it fixes mtrace
for non-PIE exectuable as for BZ#22716 for PIE).

I used these shell commands:

This hacks non-power-set processing into _dl_important_hwcaps.
Once the legacy hwcaps handling goes away, the subdirectory
handling needs to be reworked, but it is premature to do this
while both approaches are still supported.
ld.so supports two new arguments, --glibc-hwcaps-prepend and
--glibc-hwcaps-mask. Each accepts a colon-separated list of
glibc-hwcaps subdirectory names. The prepend option adds additional
subdirectories that are searched first, in the specified order. The
mask option restricts the automatically selected subdirectories to
those listed in the option argument. For example, on systems where
/usr/lib64 is on the library search path,
--glibc-hwcaps-prepend=valgrind:debug causes the dynamic loader to
search the directories /usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/valgrind and
/usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/debug just before /usr/lib64 is searched.

This prints out version information for the dynamic loader and
exits immediately, without further command line processing
(which seems to match what some GNU tools do).

--help processing is deferred to the point where the executable has
been loaded, so that it is possible to eventually include information
from the main executable in the help output.
As suggested in the GNU command-line interface guidelines, the help
message is printed to standard output, and the exit status is
successful.
Handle usage errors closer to the GNU command-line interface
guidelines.

Introduce struct dl_main_state and move it to <dl-main.h>. Rename
enum mode to enum rtld_mode and add the rtld_mode_ prefix to the enum
constants.
This avoids the need for putting state that is only needed during
startup into the ld.so data segment.
