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).
Tested on x86_64, i686, and aarch64.

This patch add a optimized strcspn for POWER7 by using a different
algorithm than default implementation: it constructs a table based on
the 'accept' argument and use this table to check for any occurance
on the input string. The idea is similar as x86_64 uses.
For PowerPC some tunings were added, such as unroll loops and align
stack memory to table to 16 bytes (so VSX clean can ran without
alignment issues).
