    string: Improve generic strcpy
    
    Now that stpcpy is vectorized based on op_t, it should be better to
    call it instead of strlen plus memcpy.
    
    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, powerpc64-linux-gnu,
    and powerpc-linux-gnu by removing the arch-specific assembly
    implementation and disabling multi-arch (it covers both LE and BE
    for 64 and 32 bits).
