[Linux] Read vDSO range from /proc/PID/task/PID/maps instead of /proc/PID/maps

... as it's _much_ faster.

Hacking the gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test to
spawn thousands of threads instead of dozens to stress and debug
timeout problems with gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp,
I saw that GDB would spend several seconds just reading the
/proc/PID/smaps file, to determine the vDSO mapping range.  GDB opens
and reads the whole file just once, and caches the result, but even
that is too slow.  For example, with almost 8000 threads:

 $ ls /proc/3518/task/ | wc -l
 7906

reading the /proc/PID/smaps file grepping for "vdso" takes over 15
seconds :

 $ time cat /proc/3518/smaps | grep vdso
 7ffdbafee000-7ffdbaff0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0                          [vdso]

 real    0m15.371s
 user    0m0.008s
 sys     0m15.017s

Looking around the web for hints, I found a nice description of the
issue here:

 http://backtrace.io/blog/blog/2014/11/12/large-thread-counts-and-slow-process-maps/

The problem is that /proc/PID/smaps wants to show the mappings as
being thread stack, and that has the kernel iterating over all threads
in the thread group, for each mapping.

The fix is to use the "map" file under /proc/PID/task/PID/ instead of
the /proc/PID/ one, as the former doesn't mark thread stacks for all
threads.

That alone drops the timing to the millisecond range on my machine:

 $ time cat /proc/3518/task/3518/smaps | grep vdso
 7ffdbafee000-7ffdbaff0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0                          [vdso]

 real    0m0.150s
 user    0m0.009s
 sys     0m0.084s

And since we only need the vdso mapping's address range, we can use
"maps" file instead of "smaps", and it's even cheaper:

/proc/PID/task/PID/maps :

 $ time cat /proc/3518/task/3518/maps | grep vdso
 7ffdbafee000-7ffdbaff0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0                          [vdso]

 real    0m0.027s
 user    0m0.000s
 sys     0m0.017s
