Some fixes for LD_BIND_NOW + ifuncs.

Description

Some fixes for LD_BIND_NOW + ifuncs.

  • Do not perform ifunc relocations together with other PLT relocations in PLT. Instead, do it during an additional pass over the init list, so that ifuncs are resolved in the order of dso dependencies. This allows the ifuncs resolvers to call into depended libs. Init list now includes all objects instead of only objects with init/fini callables.
  • Disable relro protection around bind_now ifunc relocations.

I considered calling ifunc resolvers of dso after initializers of all
dependencies are processed, and decided that this is wrong/should not
be supported. The order now is normal relocations for all
objects->ifunc resolution in init order->initializers, where each step
does complete pass over all loaded objects before moving to the next
step.
