6dcbb7d95d x86: Shrink code size of memchr-avx2.S
This is not meant as a performance optimization. The previous code was
far to liberal in aligning targets and wasted code size unnecissarily.

The total code size saving is: 59 bytes

There are no major changes in the benchmarks.
Geometric Mean of all benchmarks New / Old: 0.967

Full xcheck passes on x86_64.

7ebba91361 x86-64: Add AVX optimized string/memory functions for RTM
Since VZEROUPPER triggers RTM abort while VZEROALL won't, select AVX
optimized string/memory functions with

	xtest
	jz	1f
	vzeroall
	ret
1:
	vzeroupper
	ret

at function exit on processors with usable RTM, but without 256-bit EVEX
instructions to avoid VZEROUPPER inside a transactionally executing RTM
region.
