These sys/cdefs.h are not needed. Purge them. They are mostly left-over
from the $FreeBSD$ removal. A few in libc are still required for macros
that cdefs.h defines. Keep those.

The referenced symbols that provide init array boundaries are weak,
hidden, and undefined. The code that iterates over that arrays is not
used for the case when libc is compiled as dso.
This should fix linking with ld.bfd.

The current name was a historical curiosity that started when init array
support was added, and then the file appeared a convenient place for the
addition of the MI common code to csu. It is now referenced by name in
single place and the rename is easy, so do it.

Do not call CPUID on each ireloc, instead call it once and cache
results, similar to how it is done on powerpc64.

Why? Most trivial point, it shaves around 600 bytes from the dynamic
binaries on amd64. Less trivial, the removed code is no longer part of
the ABI, and we can ship updates to it with libc updates. Right now most
of the csu is linked into the binaries and require us to do somewhat
tricky ABI compat when it needs to change. For instance, the init_array
change would be much simpler and does not require note tagging if we
have init calling code in libc.
This could be improved more, by splitting dynamic and static
initialization. For instance, &_DYNAMIC tests can be removed then.
Such change, nonetheless, would require building libc three times.
I left this for later, after this change stabilizes, if ever.
