Issue was we were expecting not matches with CHAR before the start of
the string in the page cross case.
The check code in the page cross case:
```
and $0xffffffffffffffc0,%rax
vmovdqa64 (%rax),%zmm17
vpcmpneqb %zmm17,%zmm16,%k1
vptestmb %zmm17,%zmm17,%k0{%k1}
kmovq %k0,%rax
inc %rax
shr %cl,%rax
je L(continue)
```
expects that all characters that neither match null nor CHAR will be
1s in `rax` prior to the `inc`. Then the `inc` will overflow all of
the 1s where no relevant match was found.
This is incorrect in the page-cross case, as the
`vmovdqa64 (%rax),%zmm17` loads from before the start of the input
string.
If there are matches with CHAR before the start of the string, `rax`
won't properly overflow.
The fix is quite simple. Just replace:
```
inc %rax
shr %cl,%rax
```
With:
```
sar %cl,%rax
inc %rax
```
The arithmetic shift will clear any matches prior to the start of the
string while maintaining the signbit so the 1s can properly overflow
to zero in the case of no matches.

This code expects the WCSCAT preprocessor macro to be predefined in case
the evex implementation of the function should be defined with a name
different from __wcsncat_evex. However, when glibc is built for
x86-64-v4 without multiarch support, sysdeps/x86_64/wcsncat.S defines
WCSNCAT variable instead of WCSCAT to build it as wcsncat. Rename the
variable to WCSNCAT, as it is actually a better naming choice for the
variable in this case.

This commit uses a common implementation 'strlen-evex-base.S' for both
'strlen-evex' and 'strlen-evex512'
The motivation is to reduce the number of implementations to maintain.
This incidentally gives a small performance improvement.
All tests pass on x86.
Benchmarks were taken on SKX.

Current code aligns to 2x VEC_SIZE. Aligning to 2x has no affect on
performance other than potentially resulting in an additional
iteration of the loop.
1x maintains aligned stores (the only reason to align in this case)
and doesn't incur any unnecessary loop iterations.

The dl-symbol-redir-ifunc.h redirects compiler-generated libcalls to
arch-specific memory implementations to avoid ifunc calls where it is not
yet possible. The memcmp-isa-default-impl.h aims to fix the same issue
by calling the specific memset implementation directly.
Using the memcmp symbol directly allows the compiler to inline the memset
calls (especially because _dl_tunable_set_hwcaps uses constants values),
generating better code.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

strrchr-evex-base used `vpcompress{b|d}` in the page cross logic but
was missing the CPU_FEATURE checks for VBMI2 in the
ifunc/ifunc-impl-list.
The fix is either to add those checks or change the logic to not use
`vpcompress{b|d}`. Choosing the latter here so that the strrchr-evex
implementation is usable on SKX.
New implementation is a bit slower, but this is in a cold path so its
probably okay.

This commit refactors `strrchr-evex` and `strrchr-evex512` to use a
common implementation: `strrchr-evex-base.S`.
The motivation is `strrchr-evex` needed to be refactored to not use
64-bit masked registers in preperation for AVX10.
Once vec-width masked register combining was removed, the EVEX and
EVEX512 implementations can easily be implemented in the same file
without any major overhead.
The net result is performance improvements (measured on TGL) for both
`strrchr-evex` and `strrchr-evex512`. Although, note there are some
regressions in the test suite and it may be many of the cases that
make the total-geomean of improvement/regression across bench-strrchr
are cold. The point of the performance measurement is to show there
are no major regressions, but the primary motivation is preperation
for AVX10.
Benchmarks where taken on TGL:

Occurs when `src` has no null-term.
Two cases:
1) Zero-length check is doing:
```
test %rdx, %rdx
jl L(zero_len)
```
which doesn't actually check zero (was at some point `decq` and the
flag never got updated).
The fix is just make the flag `jle` i.e:
```
test %rdx, %rdx
jle L(zero_len)
```
2) Length check in page-cross case checking if we should continue is
doing:
```
cmpq %r8, %rdx
jb L(page_cross_small)
```
which means we will continue searching for null-term if length ends at
the end of a page and there was no null-term in `src`.
The fix is to make the flag:
```
cmpq %r8, %rdx
jbe L(page_cross_small)
```

#29863]
In the case of INCORRECT usage of `memcmp(a, b, N)` where `a` and `b`
are concurrently modified as `memcmp` runs, there can be a SIGSEGV
in `L(ret_nonzero_vec_end_0)` because the sequential logic
assumes that `(rdx - 32 + rax)` is a positive 32-bit integer.
To be clear, this change does not mean the usage of `memcmp` is
supported. The program behaviour is undefined (UB) in the
presence of data races, and `memcmp` is incorrect when the values
of `a` and/or `b` are modified concurrently (data race). This UB
may manifest itself as a SIGSEGV. That being said, if we can
allow the idiomatic use cases, like those in yottadb with
opportunistic concurrency control (OCC), to execute without a
SIGSEGV, at no cost to regular use cases, then we can aim to
minimize harm to those existing users.
The fix replaces a 32-bit `addl %edx, %eax` with the 64-bit variant
`addq %rdx, %rax`. The 1-extra byte of code size from using the
64-bit instruction doesn't contribute to overall code size as the
next target is aligned and has multiple bytes of `nop` padding
before it. As well all the logic between the add and `ret` still
fits in the same fetch block, so the cost of this change is
basically zero.
The relevant sequential logic can be seen in the following
pseudo-code:
```
/*
* rsi = a
* rdi = b
* rdx = len - 32
*/
/* cmp a[0:15] and b[0:15]. Since length is known to be [17, 32]
in this case, this check is also assumed to cover a[0:(31 - len)]
and b[0:(31 - len)]. */
movups (%rsi), %xmm0
movups (%rdi), %xmm1
PCMPEQ %xmm0, %xmm1
pmovmskb %xmm1, %eax
subl %ecx, %eax
jnz L(END_NEQ)
/* cmp a[len-16:len-1] and b[len-16:len-1]. */
movups 16(%rsi, %rdx), %xmm0
movups 16(%rdi, %rdx), %xmm1
PCMPEQ %xmm0, %xmm1
pmovmskb %xmm1, %eax
subl %ecx, %eax
jnz L(END_NEQ2)
ret
L(END2):
/* Position first mismatch. */
bsfl %eax, %eax
/* The sequential version is able to assume this value is a
positive 32-bit value because the first check included bytes in
range a[0:(31 - len)] and b[0:(31 - len)] so `eax` must be
greater than `31 - len` so the minimum value of `edx` + `eax` is
`(len - 32) + (32 - len) >= 0`. In the concurrent case, however,
`a` or `b` could have been changed so a mismatch in `eax` less or
equal than `(31 - len)` is possible (the new low bound is `(16 -
len)`. This can result in a negative 32-bit signed integer, which
when zero extended to 64-bits is a random large value this out
out of bounds. */
addl %edx, %eax
/* Crash here because 32-bit negative number in `eax` zero
extends to out of bounds 64-bit offset. */
movzbl 16(%rdi, %rax), %ecx
movzbl 16(%rsi, %rax), %eax
```
This fix is quite simple, just make the `addl %edx, %eax` 64 bit (i.e
`addq %rdx, %rax`). This prevents the 32-bit zero extension
and since `eax` is still a low bound of `16 - len` the `rdx + rax`
is bound by `(len - 32) - (16 - len) >= -16`. Since we have a
fixed offset of `16` in the memory access this must be in bounds.

On x32, the size_t parameter may be passed in the lower 32 bits of a
64-bit register with the non-zero upper 32 bits. The string/memory
functions written in assembly can only use the lower 32 bits of a
64-bit register as length or must clear the upper 32 bits before using
the full 64-bit register for length.
This pach fixes strncpy for x32. Tested on x86-64 and x32. On x86-64,
libc.so is the same with and without the fix.

Changes to generated code are:
1. In a few places use `vpcmpeqb` instead of `vpcmpneq` to save a
byte of code size.
2. Add a branch for length <= (VEC_SIZE * 6) as opposed to doing
the entire block of [VEC_SIZE * 4 + 1, VEC_SIZE * 8] in a
single basic-block (the space to add the extra branch without
changing code size is bought with the above change).
Change (2) has roughly a 20-25% speedup for sizes in [VEC_SIZE * 4 +
1, VEC_SIZE * 6] and negligible to no-cost for [VEC_SIZE * 6 + 1,
VEC_SIZE * 8]

Optimizations are:
1. Use the fact that lzcnt(0) -> VEC_SIZE for memchr to save a branch
in short string case.
2. Save several instructions in len = [VEC_SIZE, 4 * VEC_SIZE] case.
3. Use more code-size efficient instructions.
- tzcnt ... -> bsf ...
- vpcmpb $0 ... -> vpcmpeq ...
Code Size Changes:
memrchr-evex.S : -29 bytes

Optimizations are:
1. Use the fact that bsf(0) leaves the destination unchanged to save a
branch in short string case.
2. Restructure code so that small strings are given the hot path.
- This is a net-zero on the benchmark suite but in general makes
sense as smaller sizes are far more common.
3. Use more code-size efficient instructions.
- tzcnt ... -> bsf ...
- vpcmpb $0 ... -> vpcmpeq ...
4. Align labels less aggressively, especially if it doesn't save fetch
blocks / causes the basic-block to span extra cache-lines.
The optimizations (especially for point 2) make the strnlen and
strlen code essentially incompatible so split strnlen-evex
to a new file.
Code Size Changes:
strlen-evex.S : -23 bytes
strnlen-evex.S : -167 bytes

Size Optimizations:
1. Condence hot path for better cache-locality.
- This is most impact for strchrnul where the logic strings with
len <= VEC_SIZE or with a match in the first VEC no fits entirely
in the first cache line.
2. Reuse common targets in first 4x VEC and after the loop.
3. Don't align targets so aggressively if it doesn't change the number
of fetch blocks it will require and put more care in avoiding the
case where targets unnecessarily split cache lines.
4. Align the loop better for DSB/LSD
5. Use more code-size efficient instructions.
- tzcnt ... -> bsf ...
- vpcmpb $0 ... -> vpcmpeq ...
6. Align labels less aggressively, especially if it doesn't save fetch
blocks / causes the basic-block to span extra cache-lines.

This patch implements following evex512 version of string functions.
evex512 version takes up to 30% less cycle as compared to evex,
depending on length and alignment.
- memchr function using 512 bit vectors.
- rawmemchr function using 512 bit vectors.
- wmemchr function using 512 bit vectors.
Code size data:
memchr-evex.o 762 byte
memchr-evex512.o 576 byte (-24%)
rawmemchr-evex.o 461 byte
rawmemchr-evex512.o 412 byte (-11%)
wmemchr-evex.o 794 byte
wmemchr-evex512.o 552 byte (-30%)
Placeholder function, not used by any processor at the moment.

1) Copy so that backport will be easier.
2) Make section only define if there is not a previous definition
3) Add `VEC_lo` definition for proper reg-width but in the
ymm/zmm0-15 range.
4) Add macros for accessing GPRs based on VEC_SIZE
This is to make it easier to do think like:
```
vpcmpb %VEC(0), %VEC(1), %k0
kmov{d|q} %k0, %{eax|rax}
test %{eax|rax}
```
It adds macro s.t any GPR can get the proper width with:
`V{upcase_GPR_name}`
and any mask insn can get the proper width with:
`{upcase_mask_insn_without_postfix}`

Besides the option being gcc specific, this approach is still fragile
and not future proof since we do not know if this will be the only
optimization option gcc will add that transforms loops to memset
(or any libcall).
This patch adds a new header, dl-symbol-redir-ifunc.h, that can b
used to redirect the compiler generated libcalls to port the generic
memset implementation if required.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.
