    libc: allow __cxa_atexit handlers to be added during __cxa_finalize
    
    science/dlib-cpp reveals an interesting scenario that works fine on
    other platforms but not on FreeBSD; notably, it ends up creating a new
    global object from some destructor which is called during
    __cxa_finalize.  This breaks when libdlib is dlopen()ed and then
    subsequently dlclose()ed, as we never end up invoking the created
    object's dtor until program exit when the shlib is already unmapped.
    
    Fix it by noting when we're in the middle of __cxa_finalize for a dso,
    and then restarting the search if __cxa_atexit() was called in the
    middle somewhere.
    
    We wait until we've processed the initial set before starting over and
    processing the newly added handlers as if it were a complete set of
    handlers added during runtime.  The alternative is calling them as
    they're added to maintain a LIFO in terms of total ordering, but in
    theory a constructor could add another global object that also needs to
    be destroyed, and that object needs to be destroyed after the one that
    constructed it to avoid creating unexpected lifetime issues.
    
    This manifests in the pdlib PHP extension for dlib crashing, see [0].
