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.

Geometric mean for strlen-evex512 over all benchmarks (N=10) was (new/old) 0.939
Geometric mean for wcslen-evex512 over all benchmarks (N=10) was (new/old) 0.965

This patch implements following evex512 version of string functions.
Perf gain for evex512 version is up to 50% as compared to evex,
depending on length and alignment.
Placeholder function, not used by any processor at the moment.
- String length function using 512 bit vectors.
- String N length using 512 bit vectors.
- Wide string length using 512 bit vectors.
- Wide string N length using 512 bit vectors.
