tools/nolibc: add support for stack protector This is useful when using nolibc for security-critical tools. Using nolibc has the advantage that the code is easily auditable and sandboxable with seccomp as no unexpected syscalls are used. Using compiler-assistent stack protection provides another security mechanism. For this to work the compiler and libc have to collaborate. This patch adds the following parts to nolibc that are required by the compiler: * __stack_chk_guard: random sentinel value * __stack_chk_fail: handler for detected stack smashes In addition an initialization function is added that randomizes the sentinel value. Only support for global guards is implemented. Register guards are useful in multi-threaded context which nolibc does not provide support for.

tools/nolibc: add autodetection for stackprotector support The stackprotector support in nolibc should be enabled iff it is also enabled in the compiler. Use the preprocessor defines added by gcc and clang if stackprotector support is enable to automatically do so in nolibc. This completely removes the need for any user-visible API. To avoid inlining the lengthy preprocessor check into every user introduce a new header compiler.h that abstracts the logic away. As the define NOLIBC_STACKPROTECTOR is now not user-relevant anymore prefix it with an underscore.

tools/nolibc: add prototypes for non-static functions With -Wmissing-prototypes the compiler will warn about non-static functions which don't have a prototype defined. This warning doesn't make much sense for nolibc itself but for user code it is still useful. To pacify the compiler add prototypes next to the function definitions, similar to how it is handled elsewhere in the kernel.

As the _start_c() function added by crt.h, __stack_chk_init() is called from _start_c() instead of the assembly _start. So, it is able to mark it with static now.
