module: implement module loading
This patch adds loading, stamp checking and initialization of modules.

The init function of dynamic module is no longer directly called as
__attribute__((constructor)) in static linked version, it is called
only after passed the checking of presense of stamp symbol:

    qemu_stamp_$RELEASEHASH

where $RELEASEHASH is generated by hashing version strings and content
of configure script.

With this, modules built from a different tree/version/configure will
not be loaded.

The module loading code requires gmodule-2.0.

Modules are searched under
 - CONFIG_MODDIR
 - executable folder (to allow running qemu-{img,io} in the build
   directory)
 - ../ of executable folder (to allow running system emulator in the
   build directory)

Modules are linked under their subdir respectively, then copied to top
level of build directory for above convinience, e.g.:
    $(BUILD_DIR)/block/curl.so -> $(BUILD_DIR)/block-curl.so
