[PATCH 2/2] Improve strcpy: Faster unaligned loads.


This is actual implmentation. We use optimized header that makes calls
around 50 cycles faster for nehalem and ivy bridge.

Currently this improves strcpy, stpcpy, ctrcat I keep old implementation
of strncpy/strncat.

A header that I use improves speed by 10% on most processors for gcc
workload. Separate loops that use ssse3/shifts are needed as this
implemenation is slower on large sizes for processors without fast
unaligned loads.

Results were obtained by following benchmark:

http://kam.mff.cuni.cz/~ondra/benchmark_string/strcpy_profile.html
http://kam.mff.cuni.cz/~ondra/benchmark_string/strcpy_profile90913.tar.bz2


	* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-sse2-unaligned-new.S: New implementation.
	* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/stpcpy-sse2-unaligned.S: Use new implementation.
	* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcat-sse2-unaligned.S: Do tailcall
	of __strcpy_sse2_unaligned_tail.
