These machine-dependent inline string functions have never been on by
default, and even if they were a good idea at the time they were
introduced, they haven't really been touched in ten to fifteen years
and probably aren't a good idea on current-gen processors. Current
thinking is that this class of optimization is best left to the
compiler.

Currently strsep calls strpbrk is is now a veneer to strcspn. Calling
strcspn directly is faster. Since it handles a delimiter string of size
1 as a special case, this is not needed in strsep itself. Although this
means there is a slightly higher overhead if the delimiter size is 1,
all other cases are slightly faster. The overall performance gain is 5-10%
on AArch64.
The string/bits/string2.h header contains optimizations for constant
delimiters of size 1-3. Benchmarking these showed similar performance for
size 1 (since in all cases strchr/strchrnul is used), while size 2 and 3
can give up to 2x speedup for small input strings. However if these cases
are common it seems much better to add this optimization to strcspn.
So move these header optimizations to string-inlines.c.
Improve the strsep benchmark so that it actually benchmarks something.
The current version contains a delimiter character at every position in the
input string, so there is very little work to do, and the extremely inefficent
simple_strsep implementation appears fastest in every case. The new version
has either no match in the input for the fail case and a match halfway in the
input for the success case. The input is then restored so that each iteration
does exactly the same amount of work. Reduce the number of testcases since
simple_strsep takes a lot of time now.

calls strcspn, call strcspn directly so we get the end of the token without
an extra call to rawmemchr. Also avoid an unnecessary call to strcspn after
the last token by adding an early exit for an empty string. Change strtok
to tailcall strtok_r to avoid unnecessary code duplication.
Remove the special header optimization for strtok_r of a 1-character
constant string - both strspn and strcspn contain optimizations for this
case. Benchmarking this showed similar performance in the worst case,
but up to 5.5x better performance in the "found" case for large inputs.

With now a faster strcspn implementation, it is faster to just use
it with some return tests than reimplementing strpbrk itself.
As for strcspn optimization, it is generally at least 10 times faster
than the existing implementation on bench-strspn on a few AArch64
implementations.
Also the string/bits/string2.h inlines make no longer sense, as current
implementation will already implement most of the optimizations.

As for strcspn, this patch improves strspn performance using a much
faster algorithm. It first constructs a 256-entry table based on
the accept string and then uses it as a lookup table for the
input string. As for strcspn optimization, it is generally at least
10 times faster than the existing implementation on bench-strspn
on a few AArch64 implementations.
Also the string/bits/string2.h inlines make no longer sense, as current
implementation will already implement most of the optimizations.

Improve strcspn performance using a much faster algorithm. It is kept simple
so it works well on most targets. It is generally at least 10 times faster
than the existing implementation on bench-strcspn on a few AArch64
implementations, and for some tests 100 times as fast (repeatedly calling
strchr on a small string is extremely slow...).
In fact the string/bits/string2.h inlines make no longer sense, as GCC
already uses strlen if reject is an empty string, strchrnul is 5 times as
fast as __strcspn_c1, while __strcspn_c2 and __strcspn_c3 are slower than
the strcspn main loop for large strings (though reject length 2-4 could be
special cased in the future to gain even more performance).
