x86: Remove generic strncat, strncpy, and stpncpy implementations
These functions all have optimized versions:
__strncat_sse2_unaligned, __strncpy_sse2_unaligned, and
stpncpy_sse2_unaligned which are faster than their respective generic
implementations.  Since the sse2 versions can run on baseline x86_64,
we should use these as the baseline implementation and can remove the
generic implementations.

Geometric mean of N=20 runs of the entire benchmark suite on:
11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz (Tigerlake)

__strncat_sse2_unaligned / __strncat_generic: .944
__strncpy_sse2_unaligned / __strncpy_generic: .726
__stpncpy_sse2_unaligned / __stpncpy_generic: .650

Tested build with and without multiarch and full check with multiarch.
