aarch64: fix strcpy and strnlen for big-endian [BZ #25824]
This patch fixes the optimized implementation of strcpy and strnlen
on a big-endian arm64 machine.

The optimized method uses neon, which can process 128bit with one
instruction. On a big-endian machine, the bit order should be reversed
for the whole 128-bits double word. But with instuction
	rev64	datav.16b, datav.16b
it reverses 64bits in the two halves rather than reversing 128bits.
There is no such instruction as rev128 to reverse the 128bits, but we
can fix this by loading the data registers accordingly.

Fixes 0237b61526e7("aarch64: Optimized implementation of strcpy") and
2911cb68ed3d("aarch64: Optimized implementation of strnlen").
