This patch adds the missing __libpthread_version_placeholder for
GLIBC_2.2.6 version from the nanosleep implementation move from
libpthread to libc (79a547b162).
It also fixes the wrong compat symbol definitions added by changing
back the version used on vfork check and remove the
__libpthread_version_placeholder added on some ABI (4f4bb489e0).
The __libpthread_version_placeholder is also refactored to make it
simpler to add new compat_symbols by adding a new macro
compat_symbol_unique which uses the compiler extension __COUNTER__
to generate unique strong alias to be used with compat_symbol.
Checked with a updated-abi on the all affected abis of the nanosleep
move.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and powerpc64le-linux-gnu. I also checked
the libpthread.so .gnu.version_d entries for every ABI affected and
all of them contains the required versions (including for architectures
which exports __nanosleep with a different version).

With commit f0b2132b35 ("ld.so:
Support moving versioned symbols between sonames [BZ #24741]"), the
dynamic linker will find the definition of vfork in libc and binds
a vfork reference to that symbol, even if the soname in the version
reference says that the symbol should be located in libpthread.
As a result, the forwarder (whether it's IFUNC-based or a duplicate
of the libc implementation) is no longer necessary.
On older architectures, a placeholder symbol is required, to make sure
that the GLIBC_2.1.2 symbol version does not go away, or is turned in
to a weak symbol definition by the link editor. (The symbol version
needs to preserved so that the symbol coverage check in
elf/dl-version.c does not fail for old binaries.)
mips32 is an outlier: It defined __vfork@@GLIBC_2.2, but the
baseline is GLIBC_2.0. Since there are other @@GLIBC_2.2 symbols,
the placeholder symbol is not needed there.
