This fixes segfault in xtensa ltrace caused by infinite recursion in the
function dwfl_report_elf calling other version of that function.

+Subject: [PATCH] Allow disabling symbol versioning at configure time
+
+Due to missing symbol versioning support in uClibc calls to versioned
+functions that internally call different version of themselves results
+in infinite recursion.
+
+Introduce macro SYMBOL_VERSIONING and use it instead of plain SHARED to
+decide whether symbol versioning is needed. Control this macro
+definition with new configure option --disable-symbol-versioning.
