    Fix coredump_phnum test with ASLR enabled by default

    coredump_phnum intends to generate a core file with many PT_LOAD
    segments.  Previously it called mmap() in a loop with alternating
    protections, relying on each mapping following the previous, to produce
    a core file with many page-sized PT_LOAD segments.  With ASLR on we no
    longer have this property of each mmap() following the previous.

    Instead, perform a single allocation, and then use mprotect() to set
    alternating pages to PROT_READ.
