Avoid privatization of TLS variables


Hi,
libreoffice fails to build with TLS because of "Cannot load any more object
with static TLS". Iant pointed out to me the difference that the initial exec
TLS model is also used by static TLS variables.

This patch prevents turning TLS variables into static that lets me to finish
libreoffice build.

Can the conditional be strenghtened somewhat? decl_default_tls_model has:

  if (!flag_shlib)
    {
      if (is_local)
        kind = TLS_MODEL_LOCAL_EXEC;
      else
        kind = TLS_MODEL_INITIAL_EXEC;
    }

  /* Local dynamic is inefficient when we're not combining the
     parts of the address.  */
  else if (optimize && is_local)
    kind = TLS_MODEL_LOCAL_DYNAMIC;
  else
    kind = TLS_MODEL_GLOBAL_DYNAMIC;

perhaps we should have fake TLS_MODEL_EXEC and TLS_MODE_DYNAMIC modes
that get more specified later once the visibility is finalized instead of
deciding it at compile time?

Bootstrapped/regtested x86_64-linux, comitted for now until we get better
solution (if it exists).
