libvndksupport: Add android_is_in_vendor_process()
In preparation for cleaning up conditionally compiled VNDK libraries,
we need a function that determines if the current process is running in
the system process or the vendor process.
Bug: 119423884
Test: Add a dummy VNDK library that prints different string in system
vs vendor process. Use the library in different processs and
check the output.
