arm64: clean up symbol aliasing
Now that we have SYM_FUNC_ALIAS() and SYM_FUNC_ALIAS_WEAK(), use those to simplify and more consistently define function aliases across arch/arm64.
Aliases are now defined in terms of a canonical function name. For position-independent functions I've made the __pi_<func> name the canonical name, and defined other alises in terms of this.
The SYM_FUNC_{START,END}_PI(func) macros obscure the __pi_<func> name, and make this hard to seatch for. The SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI() macro also obscures the fact that the __pi_<func> fymbol is global and the <func> symbol is weak. For clarity, I have removed these macros and used SYM_FUNC_{START,END}() directly with the __pi_<func> name.
For example:
SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI(func) ... asm insns ... SYM_FUNC_END_PI(func) EXPORT_SYMBOL(func)
... becomes:
SYM_FUNC_START(__pi_func) ... asm insns ... SYM_FUNC_END(__pi_func)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS_WEAK(func, __pi_func) EXPORT_SYMBOL(func)
For clarity, where there are multiple annotations such as EXPORT_SYMBOL(), I've tried to keep annotations grouped by symbol. For example, where a function has a name and an alias which are both exported, this is organised as:
SYM_FUNC_START(func) ... asm insns ... SYM_FUNC_END(func) EXPORT_SYMBOL(func)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS(alias, func) EXPORT_SYMBOL(alias)
For consistency with the other string functions, I've defined strrchr as a position-independent function, as it can safely be used as such even though we have no users today.
As we no longer use SYM_FUNC_{START,END}_ALIAS(), our local copies are removed. The common versions will be removed by a subsequent patch.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

arm64: Better optimised memchr()
Although we implement our own assembly version of memchr(), it turns out to be barely any better than what GCC can generate for the generic C version (and would go wrong if the size_t argument were ever large enough to be interpreted as negative). Unfortunately we can't import the tuned implementation from the Arm optimized-routines library, since that has some Advanced SIMD parts which are not really viable for general kernel library code. What we can do, however, is pep things up with some relatively straightforward word-at-a-time logic for larger calls.
Adding some timing to optimized-routines' memchr() test for a simple benchmark, overall this version comes in around half as fast as the SIMD code, but still nearly 4x faster than our existing implementation.

arm64: string: use asm EXPORT_SYMBOL()
For a while now it's been possible to use EXPORT_SYMBOL() in assembly files, which allows us to place exports immediately after assembly functions, as we do for C functions.
As a step towards removing arm64ksyms.c, let's move the string routine exports to the assembly files the functions are defined in. Routines which should only be exported for !KASAN builds are exported using the EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOKASAN() helper.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

arm64: lib: use C string functions with KASAN enabled
ARM64 has asm implementation of memchr(), memcmp(), str[r]chr(), str[n]cmp(), str[n]len(). KASAN don't see memory accesses in asm code, thus it can potentially miss many bugs.
Ifdef out __HAVE_ARCH_* defines of these functions when KASAN is enabled, so the generic implementations from lib/string.c will be used.
We can't just remove the asm functions because efistub uses them. And we can't have two non-weak functions either, so declare the asm functions as weak.
