prctl: add PR_GET_AUXV to copy auxv to userspace

Browse Source 
If a library wants to get information from auxv (for instance,
AT_HWCAP/AT_HWCAP2), it has a few options, none of them perfectly reliable
or ideal:

- Be main or the pre-main startup code, and grub through the stack above
  main. Doesn't work for a library.
- Call libc getauxval. Not ideal for libraries that are trying to be
  libc-independent and/or don't otherwise require anything from other
  libraries.
- Open and read /proc/self/auxv. Doesn't work for libraries that may run
  in arbitrarily constrained environments that may not have /proc
  mounted (e.g. libraries that might be used by an init program or a
  container setup tool).
- Assume you're on the main thread and still on the original stack, and
  try to walk the stack upwards, hoping to find auxv. Extremely bad
  idea.
- Ask the caller to pass auxv in for you. Not ideal for a user-friendly
  library, and then your caller may have the same problem.

Add a prctl that copies current->mm->saved_auxv to a userspace buffer.
