x86: Optimize memchr-evex.S

No bug. This commit optimizes memchr-evex.S. The optimizations include
replacing some branches with cmovcc, avoiding some branches entirely
in the less_4x_vec case, making the page cross logic less strict,
saving some ALU in the alignment process, and most importantly
increasing ILP in the 4x loop. test-memchr, test-rawmemchr, and
test-wmemchr are all passing.
