Optimise `memcmp` for speed

I saw that in other parts of the `string` module iterations over `usize` were
used to increase iteration speed.  In this patch I apply the same logic to
`memcmp`.  With this change I measured a 7x speedup for `memcmp` on a ~1MB
buffer (comparing two buffers with the same content) on my machine (i7-7500U),
but I did not do any real world benchmarking for the change.  The increase in
speed comes with the tradeoff of both increased complexity and larger generated
assembly code for the function.

I tested the correctness of the implementation by generating two randomly filled
buffers and comparing the `memcmp` result of the old implementation against this
new one.

I ran the tests and currently currently three of them fail:
  - netdb (fails to run)
  - stdio/rename (fails to verify)
  - unistd/pipe (fails to verify)

They do so though regardless of this change, so I don't think they are related.
