FROMLIST: lib/string.c: Optimize memchr()

Browse Source 
The original version of memchr() is implemented with the byte-wise
comparing technique, which does not fully use 64-bits or 32-bits
registers in CPU. We use word-wide comparing so that 8 characters
can be compared at the same time on CPU. This code is base on
David Laight's implementation.

We create two files to measure the performance. The first file
contains on average 10 characters ahead the target character.
The second file contains at least 1000 characters ahead the
target character. Our implementation of “memchr()” is slightly
better in the first test and nearly 4x faster than the orginal
implementation in the second test.
