Created tunable glibc.pthread.stack_hugetlb to control when hugepages
can be used for stack allocation.
In case THP are enabled and glibc.pthread.stack_hugetlb is set to
0, glibc will madvise the kernel not to use allow hugepages for stack
allocations.

And make always supported. The configure option was added on glibc 2.25
and some features require it (such as hwcap mask, huge pages support, and
lock elisition tuning). It also simplifies the build permutations.
Changes from v1:
* Remove glibc.rtld.dynamic_sort changes, it is orthogonal and needs
more discussion.
* Cleanup more code.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

The valgrind/helgrind test suite needs a way to make stack dealloction
more prompt, and this feature seems to be generally useful.

This is in preparation of moving the mutex code into libc.
__pthread_tunables_init is now called via __pthread_early_init.

This patch does not have any functionality change, we only provide a spin
count tunes for pthread adaptive spin mutex. The tunable
glibc.pthread.mutex_spin_count tunes can be used by system administrator to
squeeze system performance according to different hardware capabilities and
workload characteristics.
The maximum value of spin count is limited to 32767 to avoid the overflow
of mutex->__data.__spins variable with the possible type of short in
pthread_mutex_lock ().
The default value of spin count is set to 100 with the reference to the
previous number of times of spinning via trylock. This value would be
architecture-specific and can be tuned with kinds of benchmarks to fit most
cases in future.
I would extend my appreciation sincerely to H.J.Lu for his help to refine
this patch series.
