    BZ#355188 valgrind should intercept all malloc related global functions.
    
    This implements the interception of all globally public allocation
    functions by default. It works by adding a flag to the spec to say the
    interception only applies to global functions. Which is set for the
    somalloc spec. The librarypath to match is set to "*" unless the user
    overrides it. Then each DiSym keeps track of whether the symbol is local
    or global. For a spec which has isGlobal set only isGlobal symbols will
    match.
    
    Note that because of padding to keep the addresses in DiSym aligned the
    addition of the extra bool isGlobal doesn't actually grow the struct.
    The comments explain how the struct could be made more compact on 32bit
    systems, but this isn't as easy on 64bit systems. So I didn't try to do
    that in this patch.
    
    For ELF symbols keeping track of which are global is trivial. For pdb I
    had to guess and made only the "Public" symbols global. I don't know
    how/if macho keeps track of global symbols or not. For now I just mark
    all of them local (which just means things work as previously on platforms
    that use machos, no non-system symbols are matches by default for somalloc
    unless the user explicitly tells which library name to match).
    
    Included are two testcases for shared libraries (wrapmalloc) and staticly
    linked (wrapmallocstatic) malloc/free overrides that depend on the new
    default. One existing testcase (new_override) was adjusted to explicitly
    not use the new somalloc default because it depends on a user defined
    new implementation that has side-effects and should explicitly not be
    intercepted.
