tests-mcheck: New variable to run tests with MALLOC_CHECK_=3
This new variable allows various subsystems in glibc to run all or some of their tests with MALLOC_CHECK_=3. This patch adds infrastructure support for this variable as well as an implementation in malloc/Makefile to allow running some of the tests with MALLOC_CHECK_=3. At present some tests in malloc/ have been excluded from the mcheck tests either because they're specifically testing MALLOC_CHECK_ or they are failing in master even without the Memory Tagging patches that prompted this work. Some tests were reviewed and found to need specific error points that MALLOC_CHECK_ defeats by terminating early but a thorough review of all tests is needed to bring them into mcheck coverage. The following failures are seen in current master: FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-fork-deadlock-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-stats-cancellation-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-realloc-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-reallocarray-mcheck All of these are due to the Memory Tagging patchset and will be fixed separately.
