String: Add support for __memcmpeq() ABI on all targets
No bug.
This commit adds support for __memcmpeq() as a new ABI for all
targets. In this commit __memcmpeq() is implemented only as an alias
to the corresponding targets memcmp() implementation. __memcmpeq() is
added as a new symbol starting with GLIBC_2.35 and defined in string.h
with comments explaining its behavior. Basic tests that it is callable
and works where added in string/tester.c
As discussed in the proposal "Add new ABI '__memcmpeq()' to libc"
__memcmpeq() is essentially a reserved namespace for bcmp(). The means
is shares the same specifications as memcmp() except the return value
for non-equal byte sequences is any non-zero value. This is less
strict than memcmp()'s return value specification and can be better
optimized when a boolean return is all that is needed.
__memcmpeq() is meant to only be called by compilers if they can prove
that the return value of a memcmp() call is only used for its boolean
value.
All tests in string/tester.c passed. As well build succeeds on
x86_64-linux-gnu target.
