Instead of checking needle length, constant 'n' number of comparisons
is checked to fall back to default implementation. This patch is tested
on powerpc64 and powerpc64le.

* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strstr.S: Handle worst case.
When building with --disable-multi-arch the memmove and strstr POWER7
optimization create and uses symbols that conflict with expect conform
tests.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/memmove.S (bcopy): Changing to
__bcopy and add a weak_alias to bcopy.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strstr.S (strstr): Use __strnlen
for static build.
This patch optimizes strstr function for power >= 7 systems. Performance
gain is obtained using aligned memory access and usage of cmpb
instruction for quicker comparison. The average improvement of this
optimization is ~40%. Tested on ppc64 and ppc64le.
