Subject: [PATCH 17/22] tools/nolibc: add auxiliary vector retrieval for riscv

In the _start block we now iterate over envp to find the auxiliary
vector after the NULL. The pointer is saved into an _auxv variable
that is marked as weak so that it's accessible from multiple units.
It was tested on riscv64 only.
