Support loading shared libraries from zip files

Add code to support loading shared libraries directly from within
APK files.

Extends the linker's handling of LD_LIBRARY_PATH, DT_RUNPATH, etc
to allow elements to be either directories as normal, or ZIP
format files.  For ZIP, the ZIP subdirectory string is separated
from the path to file by '!'.

For example, if DT_NEEDED is libchrome.so and Chrome.apk is the
Android ARM APK then the path element

  /system/app/Chrome.apk!lib/armeabi-v7a

would cause the linker to load lib/armeabi-v7a/libchrome.so
directly from inside Chrome.apk.  For loading to succeed,
libchrome.so must be 'stored' and not compressed in Chrome.apk,
and must be page aligned within the file.
