um: implement a x86_64 vDSO
Until now UML had no x86_64 vDSO. So glibc always used the vsyscall page for gettimeday() and friends. Calls to gettimeday() returned falsely the host time and confused some programs. This patch adds a vDSO which turns all __vdso_* calls into a system call so that UML can trap them. As glibc still uses the vsyscall page for static binaries this patch improves the situation only for dynamic binaries.
