[PATCH v2] Use execveat syscall in fexecve


By using execveat we no longer depend on /proc.  The execveat syscall was
introduced in 3.19, except for a few late comers.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fexecve.c (fexecve) [__NR_execveat]: Try
	execveat first.
	[!__ASSUME_EXECVEAT]: Fall back to /proc if execveat is
	unimplemented.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/kernel-features.h (__ASSUME_EXECVEAT)
	[__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION >= 0x031300]: Define.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/kernel-features.h
	(__ASSUME_EXECVEAT) [__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION < 0x040200]: Undef.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/kernel-features.h
	(__ASSUME_EXECVEAT) [__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION < 0x040000]: Undef.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/microblaze/kernel-features.h
	(__ASSUME_EXECVEAT) [__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION < 0x040000]: Undef.
	* posix/Makefile (tests): Add tst-fexecve.
	* posix/tst-fexecve.c: New file.
