Public bug reported:

I recently rebooted my laptop, and couldn't unlock my (cryptsetup-
managed) root filesystem; after entering my passphrase, the plymouth
prompt would always say “unable to unlock /dev/nvme0n1p3_crypt”.

Dropping to text mode, I can see that cryptsetup is failing with a message like:
"libgcc_s: missing library, needed for pthread_exit”.

Indeed, in the recovery console cryptsetup will immediately crash with
that message.

I note that initramfs-tools already has some logic for detecting when
libgcc_s is needed but isn't in DT_NEEDED, but this seems to have gone
out of date.

Adding an initramfs hook to manually add libgcc_s to the initramfs
results in a bootable system again.

I don't reboot this laptop often, so I unfortunately can't narrow down
*when* this started failing better than “sometime in the last 2 months”.
