    elf: Check for empty tokens before dynamic string token expansion [BZ #22625]
    
    The fillin_rpath function in elf/dl-load.c loops over each RPATH or
    RUNPATH tokens and interprets empty tokens as the current directory
    ("./"). In practice the check for empty token is done *after* the
    dynamic string token expansion. The expansion process can return an
    empty string for the $ORIGIN token if __libc_enable_secure is set
    or if the path of the binary can not be determined (/proc not mounted).
    
    Fix that by moving the check for empty tokens before the dynamic string
    token expansion. In addition, check for NULL pointer or empty strings
    return by expand_dynamic_string_token.
    
    The above changes highlighted a bug in decompose_rpath, an empty array
    is represented by the first element being NULL at the fillin_rpath
    level, but by using a -1 pointer in decompose_rpath and other functions.
    
    Changelog:
    	[BZ #22625]
    	* elf/dl-load.c (fillin_rpath): Check for empty tokens before dynamic
    	string token expansion. Check for NULL pointer or empty string possibly
    	returned by expand_dynamic_string_token.
    	(decompose_rpath): Check for empty path after dynamic string
    	token expansion.
    (cherry picked from commit 3e3c904daef69b8bf7d5cc07f793c9f07c3553ef)
