Commit Message
This patch renames HAVE_BUILTIN_MEMSET macro to
HAVE_NON_LIB_EXPAND_BUILTIN_MEMSET.
The name "HAVE_BUILTIN_MEMSET" is very confusing.
This macro cannot be removed even though GCC 6.2, that is minimum
requirement to compile glibc, already supports __builtin_memset[1].
It doesn't indicate whether GCC supports __builtin_memset or not.
But it indicates whether GCC supports __builtin_memset which doesn't
expand to a memset libcall or not.
Therefor HAVE_NON_LIB_EXPAND_BUILTIN_MEMSET is more appropriate to
increase code readability.

Sorry, but I don't see much gain in renaming the internal variable. I agree
with the comment improvement.

I see no point in rename it, a better comment as you are doing is suffice.
