TEST_IFUNC is only tested in two headers, bench-string.h and
test-string.h, after it gets defined by those headers, and it never
gets undefined.
Thus no defines of TEST_IFUNC are needed, and the *-ifunc.c tests that
just define TEST_IFUNC and include other tests are also redundant, as
is the code to remove $(tests-ifunc) and $(xtests-ifunc) conditionally
from tests and xtests. This patch removes the useless defines and
tests of TEST_IFUNC and the associated useless tests and makefile
code. It thereby fixes a series of warnings
"../string/test-string.h:21:0: warning: "TEST_IFUNC" redefined" where
test-string.h defines TEST_IFUNC to empty, other files define it to 1
and this produces warnings.
Tested for x86_64.

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.

This is the initial support for string function performance tests,
along with copying tests for memcpy and memcpy-ifunc as proof of
concept. The string function benchmarks perform operations at
different alignments and for different sizes and compare performance
between plain operations and the optimized string operations. Due to
this their output is incompatible with the function benchmarks where
we're interested in fastest time, throughput, etc.
In future, the correctness checks in the benchmark tests can be
removed. Same goes for the performance measurements in the
string/test-*.
