Paul Eggert 581c785bf3 Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrights
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.

Chung-Lin Tang e6fd79f379 elf: Testing infrastructure for ld.so DSO sorting (BZ #17645)
This is the first of a 2-part patch set that fixes slow DSO sorting behavior in
the dynamic loader, as reported in BZ #17645. In order to facilitate such a
large modification to the dynamic loader, this first patch implements a testing
framework for validating shared object sorting behavior, to enable comparison
between old/new sorting algorithms, and any later enhancements.

This testing infrastructure consists of a Python script
scripts/dso-ordering-test.py' which takes in a description language, consisting
of strings that describe a set of link dependency relations between DSOs, and
generates testcase programs and Makefile fragments to automatically test the
described situation, for example:

  a->b->c->d          # four objects linked one after another

  a->[bc]->d;b->c     # a depends on b and c, which both depend on d,
                      # b depends on c (b,c linked to object a in fixed order)

  a->b->c;{+a;%a;-a}  # a, b, c serially dependent, main program uses
                      # dlopen/dlsym/dlclose on object a

  a->b->c;{}!->[abc]  # a, b, c serially dependent; multiple tests generated
                      # to test all permutations of a, b, c ordering linked
                      # to main program

 (Above is just a short description of what the script can do, more
  documentation is in the script comments.)

Two files containing several new tests, elf/dso-sort-tests-[12].def are added,
including test scenarios for BZ #15311 and Redhat issue #1162810 [1].

Due to the nature of dynamic loader tests, where the sorting behavior and test
output occurs before/after main(), generating testcases to use
support/test-driver.c does not suffice to control meaningful timeout for ld.so.
Therefore a new utility program 'support/test-run-command', based on
test-driver.c/support_test_main.c has been added. This does the same testcase
control, but for a program specified through a command-line rather than at the
source code level. This utility is used to run the dynamic loader testcases
generated by dso-ordering-test.py.
