libc.h was intended to be a header for access to global libc state and
related interfaces, but ended up included all over the place because
it was the way to get the weak_alias macro. most of the inclusions
removed here are places where weak_alias was needed. a few were
recently introduced for hidden. some go all the way back to when
libc.h defined CANCELPT_BEGIN and _END, and all (wrongly implemented)
cancellation points had to include it.
remaining spurious users are mostly callers of the LOCK/UNLOCK macros
and files that use the LFS64 macro to define the awful *64 aliases.
in a few places, new inclusion of libc.h is added because several
internal headers no longer implicitly include libc.h.
declarations for __lockfile and __unlockfile are moved from libc.h to
stdio_impl.h so that the latter does not need libc.h. putting them in
libc.h made no sense at all, since the macros in stdio_impl.h are
needed to use them correctly anyway.

this agrees with implementation practice on glibc and BSD systems, and
is the const-correct way to do things; it eliminates warnings from
passing pointers to const. the prototype without const came from
seemingly erroneous man pages.

based on patches submitted by boris brezillon. this commit also fixes
the issue whereby the main application and libc don't have the address
ranges of their mappings stored, which was theoretically a problem for
RTLD_NEXT support in dlsym; it didn't actually matter because libc
never calls dlsym, and it seemed to be doing the right thing (by
chance) for symbols in the main program as well.
