Add callbacks to ld.so version of Linker's function
It is fact that ld.so has libc statially linked into it. Normally we wouldn't need ld.so functionality once the program is finalyl loaded, but with the next few patches, we will have dlopen which will reuse the same ld.so functionality. The problem is that it seams that huge part of the code is possible not referntially transparent. That is, it is not impossible that some of the functions have internals states. So when using the struct Linker that is initialized by ld.so's copy of libc. we must access it using the same copy even if both copies are identical. For example in dlopen if you do linker.load_library(..). That would segfault because it is using the function from libc not ld.so So I don't truly undestand why should this be needed, but after long hours of being stuck I thought maybe.. maybe that is the issue and indeed it turned out to be so.
