tunables: Add LD_HWCAP_MASK to tunables
Add LD_HWCAP_MASK to tunables in preparation of it being removed from rtld.c. This allows us to read LD_HWCAP_MASK much earlier so that it can influence IFUNC resolution in aarch64. This patch does not actually do anything other than read the LD_HWCAP_MASK variable and add the tunables way to set the LD_HWCAP_MASK, i.e. via the glibc.tune.hwcap_mask tunable. In a follow-up patch, the _dl_hwcap_mask will be replaced with glibc.tune.hwcap_mask to complete the transition. * elf/dl-tunables.list: Add glibc.tune.hwcap_mask. * scripts/gen-tunables.awk: Include dl-procinfo.h. * manual/tunables.texi: Document glibc.tune.hwcap_mask.
