PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN indicates whether accesses to internal linkage
variables and hidden visibility variables in a shared object (ld.so)
need dynamic relocations (usually R_*_RELATIVE). PI (position
independent) in the macro name is a misnomer: a code sequence using GOT
is typically position-independent as well, but using dynamic relocations
does not meet the requirement.
Not defining PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN is legacy and we expect that all new
ports will define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN. Current ports defining
PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN are more than the opposite. Change the configure
default.
No functional change.

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.

I used these shell commands:

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,

There are a few places where only known numeric values are acceptable for
`asm` parameters, yet the constraint "i" is used. "i" can include
"symbolic constants whose values will be known only at assembly time or
later."
Use "n" instead of "i" where known numeric values are required.

elf/tls-macros.h was added for TLS testing when GCC did not support
__thread. __thread and tls_model attributes are mature now and have been
used by many newer tests.
Also delete tst-tls2.c which tests .tls_common (unused by modern GCC and
unsupported by Clang/LLD). .tls_common and .tbss definition are almost
identical after linking, so the runtime test doesn't add additional
coverage. Assembler and linker tests should be on the binutils side.
When LLD 13.0.0 is allowed in configure.ac
(https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-August/129866.html),
`make check` result is on par with glibc built with GNU ld on aarch64
and x86_64.
As a future clean-up, TLS_GD/TLS_LD/TLS_IE/TLS_IE macros can be removed from
sysdeps/*/tls-macros.h. We can add optional -mtls-dialect={gnu2,trad}
tests to ensure coverage.
Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, and x86_64-linux-gnu.

The patch proposed by Peter Bergner [1] to libgcc in order to fix
[BZ #21707] adds a dependency on a symbol provided by the loader,
forcing the loader to be linked to tests after libgcc was linked.
It also requires to read the thread pointer during IRELA relocations.
Tested on powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc64le, s390x and x86_64.
