Summary: Right now, when we encounter a string equality check, e.g. `if (memcmp(a, b, s) == 0)`, we try to expand to a comparison if `s` is a small compile-time constant, and fall back on calling `memcmp()` else. This is sub-optimal because memcmp has to compute much more than equality. This patch replaces `memcmp(a, b, s) == 0` by `bcmp(a, b, s) == 0` on platforms that support `bcmp`. `bcmp` can be made much more efficient than `memcmp` because equality compare is trivially parallel while lexicographic ordering has a chain dependency.
