syscalls: Adjust for lack of 'libutil.so' on glibc >= 2.34.

This is a re-implementation of 3c8b6fd94c
done in a way that works for both glibc >= 2.34 and earlier versions.

* guix/build/syscalls.scm (syscall->procedure): When LIBRARY is true,
fall back to global symbols if (dynamic-link library) fails.
