Subject: [PATCH 4/4] tools/nolibc: add missing memchr() to string.h

Surprisingly we forgot to add this common one. It was added with a
per-arch guard allowing to later implement it in arch-specific asm
code like was done for a few other ones.

The test verifies that we don't search past the indicated length.
