x86 vDSO: generate vdso-syms.lds

This patch adds a new way of extracting symbols from the built vDSO image.
This is much simpler and less fragile than using ld -R; it removes the
need to control the DSO layout quite so exactly.  I was clearly unduly
distracted by clever ld uses when I did the original vDSO implementation.
