In commit 7c4ee5bcc82e643 we changed the order in which we construct
the AUXV, but forgot to adjust the calculation of the length. The
result is that we set info->auxv_len to a bogus and negative value,
and then later on the code in open_self_auxv() gets confused and
ends up presenting the guest with an empty file.

Since we now have to calculate the auxv length up-front as part
of figuring out how much we're going to put on the stack, set
info->auxv_len then; this allows us to assert that we put the
same number of entries into auxv as we pre-calculated, rather
than merely having a comment saying we need to do that.
