glibc: properly handle internal addons

Some addons are bundled with glibc/eglibc, so we should not try to
download and extract them.

This is done as thus:
- at download time:
- if the add-on download fails, keep going;
- at extract time:
- if the addon is present in the source tree, ignore it;
- if the addon is missing in the source tree:
- if the archive is present, extract it;
- if the archive is missing, bail out.
