[PATCH v2 08/22] tools/nolibc: export environ as a weak symbol on arm64

[Willy Tarreau]

The environ is retrieved from the _start code and is easy to store at
this moment. Let's declare the variable weak and store the value into
it. By not being static it will be visible to all units. By being weak,
if some programs already declared it, they will continue to be able to
use it. This was tested both with environ inherited from _start and
extracted from envp.
