Add framework for tunables
The tunables framework allows us to uniformly manage and expose global
variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has
instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables.
Tunables support can be enabled by passing the --enable-tunables
configure flag to the configure script. This patch only adds a
framework and does not pose any limitations on how tunable values are
read from the user. It also adds environment variables used in malloc
behaviour tweaking to the tunables framework as a PoC of the
compatibility interface.
* manual/install.texi: Add --enable-tunables option.
* INSTALL: Regenerate.
* README.tunables: New file.
* Makeconfig (CPPFLAGS): Define TOP_NAMESPACE.
(before-compile): Generate dl-tunable-list.h early.
* config.h.in: Add HAVE_TUNABLES.
* config.make.in: Add have-tunables.
* configure.ac: Add --enable-tunables option.
* configure: Regenerate.
* csu/init-first.c (__libc_init_first): Move
__libc_init_secure earlier...
* csu/init-first.c (LIBC_START_MAIN):... to here.
Include dl-tunables.h, libc-internal.h.
(LIBC_START_MAIN) [!SHARED]: Initialize tunables for static
binaries.

namespace.
* elf/dl-support (_dl_nondynamic_init): Unset MALLOC_CHECK_
only when !HAVE_TUNABLES.

callback functions.
(ptmalloc_init): Set tunable values.
