Summary

This patch adds logic to avoid putting the dynamic linker library (ld.so) as a
DT_NEEDED entry in the dynamic table. It should only appear in PT_INTERP.

This patch fixes SPEC programs 433, 445, 450, 453, 456, 462 when running on
Ubuntu Linux x86_64 and when linking SPEC programs with LLD and glibc 2.19.

Makes sense, since soneeded is a stringmap. Thanks! I updated the patch.
