ld.so.8: Update environment variables for recent glibc versions
Recent glibc versions removed support for LD_TRACE_PRELINKING,
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL, and LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS.
Also add a note for LD_HWCAP_MASK that since glibc 2.26 the environment
variable might be ignored if glibc does not support tunables.
