This series removes various ILP32 defines that are now
no longer needed.
Remove PTR_ARG/SIZE_ARG.

Remove ZVA 128 support from memset - the new memset no longer
guarantees count >= 256, which can result in underflow and a
crash if ZVA size is 128 ([1]). Since only one CPU uses a ZVA
size of 128 and its memcpy implementation was removed in commit
e162ab2bf1, remove this special
case too.

Improve small memsets by avoiding branches and use overlapping stores.
Use DC ZVA for copies over 128 bytes. Remove unnecessary code for ZVA sizes
other than 64 and 128. Performance of random memset benchmark improves by 24%
on Neoverse N1.

Add a specialized memset for the common ZVA size of 64 to avoid the
overhead of reading the ZVA size. Since the code is identical to
__memset_falkor, remove the latter.

Cleanup ifuncs. Remove uses of libc_hidden_builtin_def, use ENTRY rather than
ENTRY_ALIGN, remove unnecessary defines and conditional compilation. Rename
strlen_mte to strlen_generic. Remove rtld-memset.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

DELOUSE was added to asm code to make them compatible with non-LP64
ABIs, but it is an unfortunate name and the code was not compatible
with ABIs where pointer and size_t are different. Glibc currently
only supports the LP64 ABI so these macros are not really needed or
tested, but for now the name is changed to be more meaningful instead
of removing them completely.
Some DELOUSE macros were dropped: clone, strlen and strnlen used it
unnecessarily.
The out of tree ILP32 patches are currently not maintained and will
likely need a rework to rebase them on top of the time64 changes.
This fixes an ineffiency in the non-zero memset. Delaying the writeback
until the end of the loop is slightly faster on some cores - this shows
~5% performance gain on Cortex-A53 when doing large non-zero memsets.
* sysdeps/aarch64/memset.S (MEMSET): Improve non-zero memset loop.
small sets of up to 16 bytes, medium of 16..96 bytes which are fully unrolled.
Large memsets of more than 96 bytes align the destination and use an unrolled
loop processing 64 bytes per iteration. Memsets of zero of more than 256 use
the dc zva instruction, and there are faster versions for the common ZVA sizes
64 or 128. STP of Q registers is used to reduce codesize without loss of
performance.
The speedup on test-memset is 1% on Cortex-A57 and 8% on Cortex-A53.
* sysdeps/aarch64/memset.S (__memset):
Rewrite of optimized memset.
This patch moves the AArch64 port to the main sysdeps hierarchy. The
move is essentially:
git mv ports/sysdeps/aarch64 sysdeps/aarch64
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64
The README is updated and I've updated ChangeLog.aarch64 along the
lines of the ARM move. The AArch64 build has been tested to confirm
that there were no changes in objdump -dr output or the shared
objects.
