  No bug. This commit optimizes memcmp-evex.S. The optimizations include
adding a new vec compare path for small sizes, reorganizing the entry
control flow, removing some unnecissary ALU instructions from the main
loop, and most importantly replacing the heavy use of vpcmp + kand
logic with vpxor + vptern. test-memcmp and test-wmemcmp are both
passing.
