vdso: Rename included Makefile

As the Makefile is included into other Makefiles it can not be used to
define objects to be built from the current source directory.
However the generic datastore will introduce such a local source file.
Rename the included Makefile so it is clear how it is to be used and to
make room for a regular Makefile in lib/vdso/.

random: vDSO: add missing c-getrandom-y in Makefile

Same as for the gettimeofday CVDSO implementation, add c-getrandom-y to
ease the inclusion of lib/vdso/getrandom.c in architectures' VDSO
builds.

vdso: Improve cmd_vdso_check to check all dynamic relocations

The actual intention is that no dynamic relocation exists in the VDSO. For
this the VDSO build validates that the resulting .so file does not have any
relocations which are specified via $(ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS) per architecture,
which is fragile as e.g. ARM64 lacks an entry for R_AARCH64_RELATIVE. Aside
of that ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS is a misnomer as it checks for relative
relocations too.

However, some GNU ld ports produce unneeded R_*_NONE relocation entries. If
a port fails to determine the exact .rel[a].dyn size, the trailing zeros
become R_*_NONE relocations. E.g. ld's powerpc port recently fixed
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29540). R_*_NONE are
generally a no-op in the dynamic loaders. So just ignore them.

Remove the ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS defines and just validate that the resulting
.so file does not contain any R_* relocation entries except R_*_NONE.

lib/vdso: use "grep -E" instead of "egrep"

The latest version of grep claims the egrep is now obsolete so the build
now contains warnings that look like:
egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E
fix this up by moving the vdso Makefile to use "grep -E" instead.

lib/vdso: Provide generic VDSO implementation

In the last few years the kernel gained quite some architecture specific
vdso implementations which contain very similar code.

Introduce a generic VDSO implementation of gettimeofday() which will be
shareable between architectures once they are converted over.

The implementation is based on the current x86 VDSO code.
