Linking glibc in fully static mode is mostly unsupported. While such binaries
can easily be produced, conflicting symbols will often make them crash at
runtime. This happens because glibc will always (try to) load some dynamically
linked libraries, even when statically linked. This includes things like the
resolver, unicode/locale handling and others.
Internally at Google, this is not a concern due to the way glibc is being built
there. But in order to make all of our tests run in the open-source version of
this code, we need to change strategy a bit.
As a rule of thumb, glibc can safely be linked statically if a program is
resonably simple and does not use any networking of locale dependent
facilities. Calling syscalls directly instead of the corresponding libc
wrappers works as well, of course.
This change adjusts linker flags and sandbox policies to be more compatible
with regular Linux distributions.
Tested:
- `ctest -R '[A-Z].*'` (all SAPI/Sandbox2 tests)

Move VecStringToCharPtrArr before fork, so that it cannot deadlock when other thread holds allocation lock.

This bug only manifests if a lot of fds are open when global forkserver is started.
If the allocated exec_fd number was equal Comms::kSandbox2ClientCommsFD then it would be replaced by the comms fd and result in EACCESS at execveat.

Recenly, Debian based distribution kernels started activating the Tomoyo Linux
Security Module by default. Even if it is not used, this changes the behavior
of `/dev/fd` (pointing to `/proc/self/fd` by default), which Sandbox2 needs during
`execveat()`.
As a result, Sandbox2 and Sandboxed API always fail without one of the following
conditions
- `/proc` mounted within the sandboxee
- `/dev` mounted
- `/dev/fd` symlinked to `/proc/self/fd` in the sandboxee's mount namespace
Some code pointers to upstream Linux 5.12.2:

- https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.12.2/source/security/tomoyo/domain.c#L729
To find out whether your system has Tomoyo enabled, use this command, similar to
what this change does in code:
```
$ cat /sys/kernel/security/lsm | grep tomoyo && echo "Tomoyo active"
capability,yama,apparmor,tomoyo
Tomoyo active
```
The config setting `CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY` controls which LSMs are built into
the kernel by default.

Using C++17 means we can get rid of many `#ifdef`s by using `if constexpr`.
This way, we ensure that both branches compile and still retain zero runtime
overhead.
Note that open source builds of Sandboxed API do not ship with sanitizer
configurations yet. This will be added in follow-up changes.

This change should make it less confusing where utility code comes from.
Having it in two places made sense when we were debating whether to publish
Sandbox2 separately, but not any longer.
Follow-up changes will move `sandbox2/util.h` and rename the remaining
`sandbox2/util` folder.
