It is an update of previous Richard's patchset [1] to provide generic 
string implementation for newer ports and make them only focus on 
just specific routines to get a better overall improvement.
It is done by:

  1. parametrizing the internal routines (for instance the find zero
     in a word) so each architecture can reimplement without the need
     to reimplement the whole routine.

  2. vectorizing more string implementations (for instance strcpy 
     and strcmp).

  3. Change some implementations to use already possible optimized
     ones (for instance strnlen).  It makes new ports to focus on
     only provide optimized implementation of a hardful symbols
     (for instance memchr) and make its improvement to be used in
     a larger set of routines.

For the rest of #5806 I think we can handle them later and if 
performance of generic implementation is closer I think it is better
to just remove old assembly implementations.

I also checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, sparc64-linux-gnu,
and sparcv9-linux-gnu by removing the arch-specific assembly 
implementation and disabling multiarch (it covers both LE and BE
for 64 and 32 bits). I also checked the string routines on alpha, hppa,
and sh.

Changes since v2:

  * Move string-fz{a,b,i} to its own patch.
 
  * Add a inline implementation for __builtin_c{l,t}z to avoid using
    compiler provided symbols.

  * Add a new header, string-maskoff.h, to handle unaligned accesses
    on some implementation.

  * Fixed strcmp on LE machines.

  * Added a unaligned strcpy variant for architecture that define
    _STRING_ARCH_unaligned.

  * Add SH string-fzb.h (which uses cmp/str instruction to find
    a zero in word).

Changes since v1:

  * Marked ChangeLog entries with [BZ #5806], as appropriate.

  * Reorganized the headers, so that armv6t2 and power6 need override
    as little as possible to use their (integer) zero detection insns.

  * Hopefully fixed all of the coding style issues.

  * Adjusted the memrchr algorithm as discussed.

  * Replaced the #ifdef STRRCHR etc that are used by the multiarch files.

  * Tested on i386, i686, x86_64 (verified this is unused), ppc64,
    ppc64le --with-cpu=power8 (to use power6 in multiarch), armv7,
    aarch64, alpha (qemu) and hppa (qemu).

PS: This patchset is aimed for 2.28.
