[PATCH 5/8] elf: Parse program properties before destroying the old process

[Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com>]

Currently we try to read program properties from
NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 ELF notes.  However, we do this too late to
either report failures cleanly or influence certain aspects of
process setup such as the default mmap permissions for the new
executable's pages (which will matter for arm64 for example).

So, split parsing of the notes from use: rename
arch_setup_property() to arch_parse_property() to make the intent
clear, and hoist it before flush_old_exec() so that we can still
bail out gracefully if needed.

Also propagate arch_state into the call so that the arch backend
has somewhere to stash information for later use.
