This is Part 2 of the change, see Part 1 here: in https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/7692/
Suggested by iant@, we use the library initialization entry point to:
- create a new OS thread and run the "regular" runtime init stack on
that thread
- return immediately from the main (i.e., loader) thread
- at the first CGO invocation, we wait for the runtime initialization
to complete.
The above mechanism is implemented only on linux_amd64. Next step is to
support it on linux_arm. Other platforms don't yet support shared library
compiling/linking, but we intend to use the same strategy there as well.

Suggested by iant@, this change:
- looks for a symbol _rt0_<GOARCH>_<GOOS>_lib,
- if the symbol is present, adds a new entry into the .init_array ELF
section that points to the symbol.
The end-effect is that the symbol _rt0_<GOARCH>_<GOOS>_lib will be
invoked as soon as the (ELF) shared library is loaded, which will in turn
initialize the runtime. (To be implemented.)
