1. Refactor files so that all implementations are in the multiarch
directory
- Moved the implementation portion of memcmp sse2 from memcmp.S to
multiarch/memcmp-sse2.S
- The non-multiarch file now only includes one of the
implementations in the multiarch directory based on the compiled
ISA level (only used for non-multiarch builds. Otherwise we go
through the ifunc selector).
2. Add ISA level build guards to different implementations.
- I.e memcmp-avx2-movsb.S which is ISA level 3 will only build if
compiled ISA level <= 3. Otherwise there is no reason to include
it as we will always use one of the ISA level 4
implementations (memcmp-evex-movbe.S).
3. Add new multiarch/rtld-{w}memcmp{eq}.S that just include the
non-multiarch {w}memcmp{eq}.S which will in turn select the best
implementation based on the compiled ISA level.
4. Refactor the ifunc selector and ifunc implementation list to use
the ISA level aware wrapper macros that allow functions below the
compiled ISA level (with a guranteed replacement) to be skipped.
Tested with and without multiarch on x86_64 for ISA levels:
{generic, x86-64-v2, x86-64-v3, x86-64-v4}
And m32 with and without multiarch.
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.

No bug.
Optimizations are twofold.
1) Replace page cross and 0/1 checks with masked load instructions in
L(less_vec). In applications this reduces branch-misses in the
hot [0, 32] case.
2) Change controlflow so that L(less_vec) case gets the fall through.
Change 2) helps copies in the [0, 32] size range but comes at the cost
of copies in the [33, 64] size range. From profiles of GCC and
Python3, 94%+ and 99%+ of calls are in the [0, 32] range so this
appears to the the right tradeoff.

No bug. This commit adds new optimized __memcmpeq implementation for
evex.
The primary optimizations are:
1) skipping the logic to find the difference of the first mismatched
byte.
2) not updating src/dst addresses as the non-equals logic does not
need to be reused by different areas.
No bug. This commit adds support for __memcmpeq to be implemented
seperately from memcmp. Support is added for versions optimized with
sse2, avx2, and evex.
