x86/vdso/doc: Make vDSO examples more portable
This adds a new vdso_test.c that's written entirely in C. It also
makes all of the vDSO examples work on 32-bit x86.

x86/vdso/doc: Rename vdso_test.c to vdso_standalone_test_x86.c
This thing is hopelessly x86_64-specific: it's an example of how to
access the vDSO without any runtime support at all.

Document the vDSO and add a reference parser
It turns out that parsing the vDSO is nontrivial if you don't already
have an ELF dynamic loader around. So document it in Documentation/ABI
and add a reference CC0-licenced parser.
