d545ad17ce0f: headers/kernel: Define B_CURRENT_IMAGE_SYMBOL via __func__.
Previously, __haiku_init_before was a symbol that was included in
each (shared) object, and so it could be used to determine what
one we were in. Now, there are no such universal symbols that
are declared private to only the object, so we have to use
a different approach.
__func__ is defined as a const char* at the very beginning of
every function it's used in, set to a string of the function name
only, i.e., the arguments and return type are left off. So while
including that is perhaps not quite optimal, in practice this
definition is used extremely rarely (it was introduced by Haiku,
and it is used in only 2 applications at all that I could find --
WebKit and Canna.)
