x86-64: Optimize strchr/strchrnul/wcschr with AVX2
Optimize strchr/strchrnul/wcschr with AVX2 to search 32 bytes with vector
instructions.  It is as fast as SSE2 versions for size <= 16 bytes and up
to 1X faster for or size > 16 bytes on Haswell.  Select AVX2 version on
AVX2 machines where vzeroupper is preferred and AVX unaligned load is fast.

NB: It uses TZCNT instead of BSF since TZCNT produces the same result
as BSF for non-zero input.  TZCNT is faster than BSF and is executed
as BSF if machine doesn't support TZCNT.

	* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/Makefile (sysdep_routines): Add
	strchr-sse2, strchrnul-sse2, strchr-avx2, strchrnul-avx2,
	wcschr-sse2 and wcschr-avx2.
	* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/ifunc-impl-list.c
	(__libc_ifunc_impl_list): Add tests for __strchr_avx2,
	__strchrnul_avx2, __strchrnul_sse2, __wcschr_avx2 and
	__wcschr_sse2.
