When glibc is built as a shared library, TLS is always initialized by
the call of TLS_INIT_TP () macro made inside the dynamic loader, prior
to running the main program (see dl-call_tls_init_tp.h). We can take
advantage of this: we know for sure that __LIBC_NO_TLS () will evaluate
to 0 in all other cases, so let the compiler know that explicitly too.
Also, only define _hurd_tls_init () and TLS_INIT_TP () under the same
conditions (either !SHARED or inside rtld), to statically assert that
this is the case.
Other than a microoptimization, this also helps with avoiding awkward
sharing of the __libc_tls_initialized variable between ld.so and libc.so
that we would have to do otherwise -- we know for sure that no sharing
is required, simply because __libc_tls_initialized would always be set
to true inside libc.so.

This reverts commit b37899d34d.
Apparently we load libc.so (and thus start using its functions) before
calling TLS_INIT_TP, so libc.so functions should not actually assume
that TLS is always set up.
