How to update glibc for VE package.

1. Check glibc-ve version is 2.21-3 (in VEOS v2.0.3 release)

  $ yum group info -v veos-apprun veos-appdev | grep glibc-ve
      glibc-ve-2.21-3.el7.x86_64                       @TSUBASA-local
     =glibc-ve-2.21-3.el7.x86_64                       @TSUBASA-local
     =glibc-ve-devel-2.21-3.el7.x86_64                 @TSUBASA-local
