libgcc ifunc resolvers that access hwcap via a field in the tcb can't
be called until the thread pointer is set up. Other ifunc resolvers
might need access to at_platform. This patch sets up a fake thread
pointer early to a copy of tcbhead_t. hwcapinfo.c already had local
variables for hwcap and at_platform, replace them with an entire
tcbhead_t. It's not that large and this way we easily ensure hwcap
and at_platform are at the same relative offsets as they are in the
real thread block.
The patch also conditionally disables part of tst-tlsifunc-static,
"bar address read from IFUNC resolver is incorrect". We can't get a
proper address for a thread variable before glibc initialises tls.

Commit 67385a01d2 added a new feature for
powerpc, where we store HWCAP/Platform bits in the TCB. In the dynamic
linking case, we use the versioned symbol
'__parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform' to verify if this feature is
available. However, the same symbol was not exported to libc.a, making
it not possible for GCC to check for it prior to link time.
This patch adds a new feature for powerpc. In order to get faster access to
the HWCAP/HWCAP2 bits and platform number (i.e. for implementing
__builtin_cpu_is () / __builtin_cpu_supports () in GCC) without the overhead of
reading from the auxiliary vector, we now reserve space for them in the TCB.
This is an ABI change for GLIBC 2.23.
A new versioned symbol '__parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform' is available to
get the data from the auxiliary vector and parse it, and store it for later use
in the TLS initialization code. This function is called very early
(in _dl_sysdep_start () via DL_PLATFORM_INFO for the dynamic linking case, and
in __libc_start_main () for the static linking case) to make sure the data is
available at the time of TLS initialization.
