libubacktrace: Provide uClibc with backtrace functions
A new shared object, libubacktrace.so.0 is added to uClibc to provide backtrace functions to support application self-debugging. This set of functions requires to dynamically load libgcc_s.so so they need to call dlopen/dlsym that are provided by libdl. For this reason they cannot be included into libc.so.0 but are provided by a new library. User application that wants to use backtrace needs to be compiled with -fexceptions option and -rdynamic to get full symbols printed and must be linked against libubacktrace.so Signed-off-by: Carmelo Amoroso <carmelo.amoroso@st.com>
