fix issue with longjmp out of signal handlers and cancellation
stale state information indicating that a thread was possibly blocked
at a cancellation point could get left behind if longjmp was used to
exit a signal handler that interrupted a cancellation point.
to fix the issue, we throw away the state information entirely and
simply compare the saved instruction pointer to a range of code
addresses in the __syscall_cp_asm function. all the ugly PIC work
(which becomes minimal anyway with this approach) is defered to
cancellation time instead of happening at every syscall, which should
improve performance too.
this commit also fixes cancellation on arm, which was mildly broken
(race condition, not checking cancellation flag once inside the
cancellation point zone). apparently i forgot to implement that. the
new arm code is untested, but appears correct; i'll test and fix it
later if there are problems.

remove objcopy --weaken from the makefile
as far as I can tell, it's not useful and never way. I wrote it way
back under the assumption that non-weak symbols in the POSIX or
extension namespace could conflict with legitimate uses of the same
symbol name in the main program or other libraries, but that does not
seem to be the case.

first try at writing an efficient and "correct" exp10
this is a nonstandard function so it's not clear what conditions it
should satisfy. my intent is that it be fast and exact for positive
integral exponents when the result fits in the destination type, and
fast and correctly rounded for small negative integral exponents.
otherwise we aim for at most 1ulp error; it seems to differ from pow
by at most 1ulp and it's often 2-5 times faster than pow.

new fnmatch implementation
unlike the old one, this one's algorithm does not suffer from
potential stack overflow issues or pathologically bad performance on
certain patterns. instead of backtracking, it uses a matching
algorithm which I have not seen before (unsure whether I invented or
re-invented it) that runs in O(1) space and O(nm) time. it may be
possible to improve the time to O(n), but not without significantly
greater complexity.
