glibc: fix create thread failed in unprivileged process

Since upstream commit [d8ea0d0168 Add an internal wrapper for clone, clone2
and clone3] applied, start a unprivileged container (docker run without
--privileged), it creates a thread failed in container.

In commit d8ea0d0168, it calls __clone3 if HAVE_CLONE3_WAPPER is defined.  If
__clone3 returns -1 with ENOSYS, fall back to clone or clone2.

As known from [1], cloneXXX fails with EPERM if CLONE_NEWCGROUP,
CLONE_NEWIPC, CLONE_NEWNET, CLONE_NEWNS, CLONE_NEWPID, or CLONE_NEWUTS
was specified by an unprivileged process (process without CAP_SYS_ADMIN)

[1] https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/clone3.2.html

So if __clone3 returns -1 with EPERM, fall back to clone or clone2 could
fix the issue.

+Subject: [PATCH] fix create thread failed in unprivileged process [BZ #28287]
+
+Since commit [d8ea0d0168 Add an internal wrapper for clone, clone2 and clone3]
+applied, start a unprivileged container (docker run without --privileged),
+it creates a thread failed in container.
+
+In commit d8ea0d0168, it calls __clone3 if HAVE_CLONE3_WAPPER is defined.  If
+__clone3 returns -1 with ENOSYS, fall back to clone or clone2.
+
+As known from [1], cloneXXX fails with EPERM if CLONE_NEWCGROUP,
+CLONE_NEWIPC, CLONE_NEWNET, CLONE_NEWNS, CLONE_NEWPID, or CLONE_NEWUTS
+was specified by an unprivileged process (process without CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
+
+[1] https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/clone3.2.html
+
+So if __clone3 returns -1 with EPERM, fall back to clone or clone2 could
+fix the issue. Here are the test steps:
+
+1) Prepare test code
+cat > conftest.c <<ENDOF
+ #include <pthread.h>
+ #include <stdio.h>
+
+int check_me = 0;
+void* func(void* data) {check_me = 42; printf("start thread: check_me %d\n", check_me); return &check_me;}
+int main()
+{
+  pthread_t t;
+  void *ret;
+  pthread_create (&t, 0, func, 0);
+  pthread_join (t, &ret);
+  printf("check_me %d, p %p\n", check_me, &ret);
+  return (check_me != 42 || ret != &check_me);
+}
+
+ENDOF
+
+2) Compile
+gcc -o conftest -pthread conftest.c
+
+3) Start a container with glibc 2.34 installed
+[skip details]
+docker run -it <container-image-name> bash
+
+4) Run conftest without this patch
+$ ./conftest
+check_me 0, p 0x7ffd91ccd400
+
+5) Run conftest with this patch
+$ ./conftest
+start thread: check_me 42
+check_me 42, p 0x7ffe253c6f20
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [Rejected by upstream]
+
+Upstream glibc rejected it because the latest docker has resolved the issue [1],
+and upstream glibc does not backward compatibility with old docker[2]
+
+In order to build Yocto with uninative in old docker, we need this local
+patch
