fork in libpthread cannot use IFUNC resolver [BZ #19861]
This commit only addresses the fork case, the vfork case has to be a tail call, which is why the generic code needs an IFUNC resolver there. (cherry picked from commit f06f3f05b48c72e2c9b0fa78671f94fd22d67da8)

+ Do not use IFUNC resolver with potentially unrelocated symbol.
+ * nptl/pt-fork.c [HAVE_IFUNC]: Remove.
+ (DEFINE_FORK): Remove macro and inline definition.
+ (fork_alias): Renamed from fork_ifunc.
+ (__fork_alias): Renamed from __fork_ifunc.
