dlopenable libthr

I request pre-commit exp-run for the patch which integrates libthr into libc as
plugin, allowing dlopen("libpthread.so") to work instead of breaking the
process which attempted it.  This should be very useful for programs which
allow loadable modules, where modules may be linked with threading library.

I have somewhat low expectation on the detecting breakage from the build-only
tests, but I think this is best we can do anyway.  Patch was extensively tested
by Peter Holm with stress2.
