ld.so: Do not export free/calloc/malloc/realloc functions [BZ #25486]
Exporting functions and relying on symbol interposition from libc.so makes the choice of implementation dependent on DT_NEEDED order, which is not what some compiler drivers expect. This commit replaces one magic mechanism (symbol interposition) with another one (preprocessor-/compiler-based redirection). This makes the hand-over from the minimal malloc to the full malloc more explicit. Removing the ABI symbols is backwards-compatible because libc.so is always in scope, and the dynamic loader will find the malloc-related symbols there since commit f0b2132b ("ld.so: Support moving versioned symbols between sonames [BZ #24741]").
