I like this much more than special-casing the ELF loader. It is an
unusual property that MAP_FIXED does _two_ things, so I like having
this split out.

Bikeshedding: maybe call this MAP_NO_CLOBBER? It's a modifier to
MAP_FIXED, really...

At the end of the day, I don't really care about the name, but "SAFE"
isn't very descriptive for what the flag changes about FIXED.
