Remove unused _dl_hwcap_string defines. As a result many dl-procinfo.h headers
can be removed. This also removes target specific _dl_procinfo implementations
which only printed HWCAP strings using dl_hwcap_string.

The tunable parsing duplicates the tunable environment variable so it
null-terminates each one since it simplifies the later parsing. It has
the drawback of adding another point of failure (__minimal_malloc
failing), and the memory copy requires tuning the compiler to avoid mem
operations calls.
The parsing now tracks the tunable start and its size. The
dl-tunable-parse.h adds helper functions to help parsing, like a strcmp
that also checks for size and an iterator for suboptions that are
comma-separated (used on hwcap parsing by x86, powerpc, and s390x).
Since the environment variable is allocated on the stack by the kernel,
it is safe to keep the references to the suboptions for later parsing
of string tunables (as done by set_hwcaps by multiple architectures).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, and
aarch64-linux-gnu.

Using the memcmp symbol directly allows the compile to inline the
memcmp calls (especially because _dl_tunable_set_hwcaps uses constants
values), generating better code.
Checked with tst-tunables on s390x-linux-gnu (qemu system).

And make always supported. The configure option was added on glibc 2.25
and some features require it (such as hwcap mask, huge pages support, and
lock elisition tuning). It also simplifies the build permutations.
Changes from v1:
* Remove glibc.rtld.dynamic_sort changes, it is orthogonal and needs
more discussion.
* Cleanup more code.

This patch enables the option to influence hwcaps and stfle bits used
by the s390 specific ifunc-resolvers. The currently x86-specific
tunable glibc.cpu.hwcaps is also used on s390x to achieve the task. In
addition the user can also set a CPU arch-level like z13 instead of
single HWCAP and STFLE features.
Note that the tunable only handles the features which are really used
in the IFUNC-resolvers. All others are ignored as the values are only
used inside glibc. Thus we can influence:
- HWCAP_S390_VXRS (z13)
- HWCAP_S390_VXRS_EXT (z14)
- HWCAP_S390_VXRS_EXT2 (z15)
- STFLE_MIE3 (z15)
The influenced hwcap/stfle-bits are stored in the s390-specific
cpu_features struct which also contains reserved fields for future
usage.
The ifunc-resolvers and users of stfle bits are adjusted to use the
information from cpu_features struct.
On 31bit, the ELF_MACHINE_IRELATIVE macro is now also defined.
Otherwise the new ifunc-resolvers segfaults as they depend on
the not yet processed_rtld_global_ro@GLIBC_PRIVATE relocation.
