Remove simple_strcspn/strpbrk/strsep which are significantly slower than the
generic implementations. Also remove oldstrsep and oldstrtok since they are
practically identical to the generic implementation. Adjust iteration count
to reduce benchmark time.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

Improve string benchtest timing. Many tests run for 0.01s which is way too
short to give accurate results. Other tests take over 40 seconds which is
way too long. Significantly increase the iterations of the short running
tests. Reduce number of alignment variations in the long running memcpy walk
tests so they take less than 5 seconds.
As a result most tests take at least 0.1s and all finish within 5 seconds.

Switch the string benchmarks to using bench-timing.h instead
of hp-timing.h directly. This allows the string benchmarks to
be run usefully on architectures such as ARM that do not have
support for hp-timing.h.
In order to do this the tests have been changed from timing each
individual call and picking the lowest execution time recorded to
timing a number of calls and taking the mean execution time.
