Better fix for addrcheck overlap non-checking problem

Hmm, well spotted!  Addrcheck is meant to do overlap checking, so you are right
that mac_replace_strmem.o should be linked into vgpreload_addrcheck.so.  This
patch does so, and moves _VG_USERREQ__MEMCHECK_GET_RECORD_OVERLAP into a place
where Addrcheck can see it.  After applying the patch, Addrcheck now detects
overlap errors as it should.

Sergey, this should be compatible with your patch for bug #80946, right?  If
you think so, I'll commit it, and add an overlap-error test into Addrcheck's
regression suite.  I won't comment on bug #80946 because I don't understand
the intercept mechanism very well;  I'll point those who do at it, though.
