No functions are changed. It just renames generic implementations from
'{func}_sse2' to '{func}_generic'. This is just because the postfix
"_sse2" was overloaded and was used for files that had hand-optimized
sse2 assembly implementations and files that just redirected back
to the generic implementation.
Full xcheck passed on x86_64.

Implement strcpy family IFUNC selectors in C.
All internal calls within libc.so can use IFUNC on x86-64 since unlike
x86, x86-64 supports PC-relative addressing to access the GOT entry so
that it can call via PLT without using an extra register. For libc.a,
we can't use IFUNC for functions which are called before IFUNC has been
initialized. Use IFUNC internally reduces the icache footprint since
libc.so and other codes in the process use the same implementations.
This patch uses IFUNC for strcpy family functions within libc.

This patch adds SSSE3 strcpy/stpcpy. I got up to 4X speed up on Core 2
and Core i7. I disabled it on Atom since SSSE3 version is slower for
shorter (<64byte) data.
