gnu: strace: Allow readlink, readlinkat tests to pass.

Modify the invocation of strace's "readlink" and "readlinkat" tests to prevent
them from failing due to an additional system call made by Guix's patched
version of glibc.

* gnu/packages/linux.scm (strace)[source]: Add patch.
[arguments]<#:phases>: Do not disable the "readlink" test now that it can
succeed.
* gnu/packages/patches/strace-readlink-tests.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.

+Prevent strace's "readlink" and "readlinkat" tests from failing due to the
+additional system call made by glibc with the patch "glibc-dl-cache.patch"
+applied (introduced in commit 52564e9).
+
+These changes cause strace to report during these tests only system calls on
+files contained in the test directory, effectively filtering out the
+additional readlink/readlinkat call on "/proc/self/exe" and allowing the tests
+to complete as normal.
