Problem is that rtld cannot reliably access updated environment.
This was made more obvious by bfd4c875a1. The application
environment can be in arbitrary state and place, system components
can observe it only during execve(2), or in case of rtld, right after
execve, when environment is still at know location and format.
Instead spawn ld-elf.so.1 in direct exec mode which can correctly read
all inherited updates to the environment.

- Use libelf to parse ELF data structures and remove code duplication
for ELF32.
- Don't require the OSABI field to be set to the FreeBSD OSABI for
shared libraries. Both AArch64 and RISC-V leave it set to "none"
and instead depend on the ABI tag note. For ldd, this means falling
back to walking the notes in PT_NOTE segments to find the ABI tag
note to determine if an ELF shared library without OSABI set in the
header file is a FreeBSD shared library.

Userland aout support has not been required since FreeBSD 2.x.
If someone needs to use FreeBSD 2 shared libraries they will be best
served by using a FreeBSD 2 ldd, perhaps as part of a jail with a full
FreeBSD 2.x install.

Specifically, build a 32-bit /usr/bin/ldd32 on amd64 which handles 32-bit
objects. Since it is a 32-bit binary, it can fork a child process which
can dlopen() a 32-bit shared library. The current 32-bit support in ldd
can't do this because it does the dlopen() from a 64-bit process. In order
to preserve an intuitive interface for users, the ldd binary automatically
execs /usr/bin/ldd32 for 32-bit objects. The end result is that ldd on
amd64 now transparently handles 32-bit shared libraries in addition to
32-bit binaries.

Bring the style of sods.c into better conformance. Add code to
print the contents of each datum being relocated. Correct the logic
that distinguishes between programs, shared libraries, and object
files. Make the entire program "-Wall" clean.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
