Fix disabling of solib probes when LD_AUDITing

The SVR4 solib event handler determines whether an event is related to a
non-base link namespace by comparing the event's debug struct address
to the debug struct address of the initial program image. However, this
can fail when using LD_AUDIT as audit libraries are loaded before the
loader has initialised the initial program image's debug struct. When
the event handler fails to find the debug struct, the probe-based
debugger interface is disabled and a warning is flagged to the user.

This commit adds a fallback test to help determine whether an event is
for a foreign link namespace when the debug struct isn't available.
