linux-user: Adjust initial brk when interpreter is close to executable

While we attempt to load a ET_DYN executable far away from
TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE, we are not completely in control of the
address space layout.  If the interpreter lands close to
the executable, leaving insufficient heap space, move brk.

[rth: Re-order after ELF_ET_DYN_BASE patch so that we do not
 "temporarily break" tsan, and also to minimize the changes required.
 Remove image_info.reserve_brk as unused.]
