tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSO
This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday(). Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace. (You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0, but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.) Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.
