add API routine to get DR segment base

xref issue #527 . But Dr. Memory wants not just the app segment bases but
also the absolute address of dr_raw_tls_calloc() slots. Otherwise it's
awkward to deal with a data structure stored there from C code. Maybe we
should add a new API routine to get the DR segment base (the address that
dr_raw_tls_calloc() offsets are relative to).

Shall we have dr_get_raw_tls_base with parameter drcontext or dr_get_dr_seg_base with parmeters segment register and drcontext?

hmm, the former matches my use case, but the latter is more powerful and perhaps we'll hit some use later that needs it -- though if we do that make sure to document in dr_raw_tls_calloc() that it can be used to get the base
