Add libexecinfo to lib directory, but leave it unhooked
The execinfo library is used to fill in the backtrace of the currently executing thread. It originated in Linux and has found its way into a lot of vendor software. NetBSD created a BSD-licensed implementation which FreeBSD imported a while back.
The execinfo library has been in FreeBSD since Release 10. FreeBSD 9 is the only release that needs libexecinfo from ports and when that release hits EOL, DragonFly could be left unsupported if ports maintainers assumes libexecinfo is always available and removes USES support for it.
To avoid this situation, bring libexecinfo into DragonFly's base for the purpose of supporting ports. It requires libelf which has also been brought in as an internal library.
