cleanup dynamic linker start code cruft
two actual issues: one is that __dynlink no longer wants/needs a GOT pointer argument, so the code to generate that argument can be removed. the other issue was that in the i386 code, argc/argv were being loaded into registers that would be call-clobbered, then copied to preserved registers, rather than just being loaded into the proper call-preserved registers to begin with. this cleanup is in preparation for adding new dynamic linker functionality (ability to explicitly invoke the dynamic linker to run a program).
