Should rename ELFOSABI_LINUX into ELFOSABI_GNU, and drop ELFOSABI_HURD

Forwarded from http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12913

Hello,

H.J. Lu added separate ELFOSABI_LINUX and _HURD definitions, but these
are actually meant to be the same: the dynamic linker is the same in
both cases, from glibc, with the same "GNU" extensions.

A recent change (http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10549)
made this issue apparent eventually.  Roland says we should simply
rename the existing ELFOSABI_LINUX into ELFOSABI_GNU, and remove
ELFOSABI_HURD.  The attached patch does this (but keeps ELFOSABI_LINUX
as an alias for software which may already be using it).
