The 680c597e9c commit made loader reject ill-formatted strings by
first tracking all set tunables and then applying them. However, it does
not take into consideration if the same tunable is set multiple times,
where parse_tunables_string appends the found tunable without checking
if it was already in the list. It leads to a stack-based buffer overflow
if the tunable is specified more than the total number of tunables. For
instance:
GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.malloc.check=2:... (repeat over the number of
total support for different tunable).
Instead, use the index of the tunable list to get the expected tunable
entry. Since now the initial list is zero-initialized, the compiler
might emit an extra memset and this requires some minor adjustment
on some ports.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.

Cleanup ifuncs. Remove uses of libc_hidden_builtin_def, use ENTRY rather than
ENTRY_ALIGN, remove unnecessary defines and conditional compilation. Rename
strlen_mte to strlen_generic. Remove rtld-memset.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't

To enable building glibc with branch protection, assembly code
needs BTI landing pads and ELF object file markings in the form
of a GNU property note.
The landing pads are unconditionally added to all functions that
may be indirectly called. When the code segment is not mapped
with PROT_BTI these instructions are nops. They are kept in the
code when BTI is not supported so that the layout of performance
critical code is unchanged across configurations.
The GNU property notes are only added when there is support for
BTI in the toolchain, because old binutils does not handle the
notes right. (Does not know how to merge them nor to put them in
PT_GNU_PROPERTY segment instead of PT_NOTE, and some versions
of binutils emit warnings about the unknown GNU property. In
such cases the produced libc binaries would not have valid
ELF marking so BTI would not be enabled.)
Note: functions using ENTRY or ENTRY_ALIGN now start with an
additional BTI c, so alignment of the following code changes,
but ENTRY_ALIGN_AND_PAD was fixed so there is no change to the
existing code layout. Some string functions may need to be
tuned for optimal performance after this commit.
