Improve strstr performance
Improve strstr performance. Strstr tends to be slow because it uses many calls to memchr and a slow byte loop to scan for the next match. Performance is significantly improved by using strnlen on larger blocks and using strchr to search for the next matching character. strcasestr can also use strnlen to scan ahead, and memmem can use memchr to check for the next match. On the GLIBC bench tests the performance gains on Cortex-A72 are: strstr: +25% strcasestr: +4.3% memmem: +18% On a 256KB dataset strstr performance improves by 67%, strcasestr by 47%.
