1. Refactor files so that all implementations are in the multiarch
directory
- Moved the implementation portion of memset sse2 from memset.S to
multiarch/memset-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 memset-avx2-unaligned-erms.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 (memset-evex-unaligned-erms.S).
3. Add new multiarch/rtld-memset.S that just include the
non-multiarch memset.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.
Both symbols are marked as legacy in POSIX.1-2001 and removed on
POSIX.1-2008, although the prototypes are defined for _GNU_SOURCE
or _DEFAULT_SOURCE.
GCC also replaces bcopy with a memmove and bzero with memset on default
configuration (to actually get a bzero libc call the code requires
to omit string.h inclusion and built with -fno-builtin), so it is
highly unlikely programs are actually calling libc bzero symbol.
On a recent Linux distro (Ubuntu 22.04), there is no bzero calls
by the installed binaries.

memset with zero as the value to set is by far the majority value (99%+
for Python3 and GCC).
bzero can be slightly more optimized for this case by using a zero-idiom
xor for broadcasting the set value to a register (vector or GPR).

No bug.
Split vec generation into multiple steps. This allows the
broadcast in AVX2 to use 'xmm' registers for the L(less_vec)
case. This saves an expensive lane-cross instruction and removes
the need for 'vzeroupper'.
For SSE2 replace 2x 'punpck' instructions with zero-idiom 'pxor' for
byte broadcast.
Results for memset-avx2 small (geomean of N = 20 benchset runs).

No bug.
Optimization are
1. change control flow for L(more_2x_vec) to fall through to loop and
jump for L(less_4x_vec) and L(less_8x_vec). This uses less code
size and saves jumps for length > 4x VEC_SIZE.
2. For EVEX/AVX512 move L(less_vec) closer to entry.
3. Avoid complex address mode for length > 2x VEC_SIZE
4. Slightly better aligning code for the loop from the perspective of
code size and uops.
5. Align targets so they make full use of their fetch block and if
possible cache line.
6. Try and reduce total number of icache lines that will need to be
pulled in for a given length.
7. Include "local" version of stosb target. For AVX2/EVEX/AVX512
jumping to the stosb target in the sse2 code section will almost
certainly be to a new page. The new version does increase code size
marginally by duplicating the target but should get better iTLB
behavior as a result.
test-memset, test-wmemset, and test-bzero are all passing.

No bug. This commit adds optimized cased for less_vec memset case that
uses the avx512vl/avx512bw mask store avoiding the excessive
branches. test-memset and test-wmemset are passing.

Update ifunc-memset.h/ifunc-wmemset.h to select the function optimized
with AVX512 instructions using ZMM16-ZMM31 registers to avoid RTM abort
with usable AVX512VL and AVX512BW since VZEROUPPER isn't needed at
function exit.
If assembler doesn't support AVX512DQ, _dl_runtime_resolve_avx is used
to save the first 8 vector registers, which only saves the lower 256
bits of vector register, for lazy binding. When it is called on AVX512
platform, the upper 256 bits of ZMM registers are clobbered. Parameters
passed in ZMM registers will be wrong when the function is called the
first time. This patch requires binutils 2.24, whose assembler can store
and load ZMM registers, to build x86-64 glibc. Since mathvec library
needs assembler support for AVX512DQ, we disable mathvec if assembler
doesn't support AVX512DQ.

Implement x86-64 memset with unaligned store and rep movsb. Support
16-byte, 32-byte and 64-byte vector register sizes. A single file
provides 2 implementations of memset, one with rep stosb and the other
without rep stosb. They share the same codes when size is between 2
times of vector register size and REP_STOSB_THRESHOLD which defaults
to 2KB.
Key features:
1. Use overlapping store to avoid branch.
2. For size <= 4 times of vector register size, fully unroll the loop.
3. For size > 4 times of vector register size, store 4 times of vector
register size at a time.
