have sh/fdpic entry point set fdpic personality if needed
the entry point code supports being loaded by a loader which is not fdpic-aware (in practice, either kernel with mmu or qemu without fdpic support). this mostly just works, but signal handling will wrongly use a function descriptor address as a code address if the personality is not adjusted to fdpic. ideally this code could be placed with sigaction so that it's not needed except if/when a signal handler is installed. however, personality is incorrectly maintained per-thread by the kernel, rather than per-process, so it's necessary to correct the personality before any threads are started. also, in order to skip the personality syscall when an fdpic-aware loader is used, we need to be able to detect how the program was loaded, and this information is only readily available at the entry point.
