Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 8/8] tools/include/string: Implement `strdup()` and `strndup()`

These functions are currently only available on architectures that have
my_syscall6() macro implemented. Since these functions use malloc(),
malloc() uses mmap(), mmap() depends on my_syscall6() macro.

On architectures that don't support my_syscall6(), these function will
always return NULL with errno set to ENOSYS.

@@ Changelog:

   Link RFC v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220320093750.159991-7-ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org/
   RFC v1 -> RFC v2:
    - Update strdup and strndup implementation, use strlen and strnlen to get
      the string length first (comment from Willy and Alviro).
    - Fix the subject line prefix, it was "tools/include/string: ", it should be
      "tools/nolibc/string: ".
    - Update the commit message.
