Fix recursive dlopen.
The ability to recursively call dlopen is useful for malloc
implementations that wish to load other dynamic modules that
implement reentrant/AS-safe functions to use in their own
implementation.
Given that a user malloc implementation may be called by an
ongoing dlopen to allocate memory the user malloc
implementation interrupts dlopen and if it calls dlopen again
that's a reentrant call.
This patch fixes the issues with the ld.so.cache mapping
and the _r_debug assertion which prevent this from working
as expected.
