And shorten the section/node names a bit, so that the menu
entries become easier to read.
Texinfo 6.5 fails to process the previous structure:
./dynlink.texi:56: warning: node `Dynamic Linker Introspection' is
next for `Dynamic Linker Diagnostics' in sectioning but not in menu
./dynlink.texi:56: warning: node up `Dynamic Linker Diagnostics'
in menu `Dynamic Linker Invocation' and
in sectioning `Dynamic Linker' differ
./dynlink.texi:1: node `Dynamic Linker' lacks menu item for
`Dynamic Linker Diagnostics' despite being its Up target
./dynlink.texi:226: warning: node prev `Dynamic Linker Introspection' in menu `Dynamic Linker Invocation'
and in sectioning `Dynamic Linker Diagnostics' differ
Texinfo 7.0.2 does not report an error.
This fixes commit f21962ddfc
("manual: Document ld.so --list-diagnostics output").

The information is theoretically available via dl_iterate_phdr as
well, but that approach is very slow if there are many shared
objects.

It can be used to speed up the libgcc unwinder, and the internal
_dl_find_dso_for_object function (which is used for caller
identification in dlopen and related functions, and in dladdr).
_dl_find_object is in the internal namespace due to bug 28503.
If libgcc switches to _dl_find_object, this namespace issue will
be fixed. It is located in libc for two reasons: it is necessary
to forward the call to the static libc after static dlopen, and
there is a link ordering issue with -static-libgcc and libgcc_eh.a
because libc.so is not a linker script that includes ld.so in the
glibc build tree (so that GCC's internal -lc after libgcc_eh.a does
not pick up ld.so).
It is necessary to do the i386 customization in the
sysdeps/x86/bits/dl_find_object.h header shared with x86-64 because
otherwise, multilib installations are broken.
The implementation uses software transactional memory, as suggested
by Torvald Riegel. Two copies of the supporting data structures are
used, also achieving full async-signal-safety.
