commits leading up to this one have moved the vast majority of
libc-internal interface declarations to appropriate internal headers,
allowing them to be type-checked and setting the stage to limit their
visibility. the ones that have not yet been moved are mostly
namespace-protected aliases for standard/public interfaces, which
exist to facilitate implementing plain C functions in terms of POSIX
functionality, or C or POSIX functionality in terms of extensions that
are not standardized. some don't quite fit this description, but are
"internally public" interfacs between subsystems of libc.
rather than create a number of newly-named headers to declare these
functions, and having to add explicit include directives for them to
every source file where they're needed, I have introduced a method of
wrapping the corresponding public headers.
parallel to the public headers in $(srcdir)/include, we now have
wrappers in $(srcdir)/src/include that come earlier in the include
path order. they include the public header they're wrapping, then add
declarations for namespace-protected versions of the same interfaces
and any "internally public" interfaces for the subsystem they
correspond to.
along these lines, the wrapper for features.h is now responsible for
the definition of the hidden, weak, and weak_alias macros. this means
source files will no longer need to include any special headers to
access these features.
over time, it is my expectation that the scope of what is "internally
public" will expand, reducing the number of source files which need to
include *_impl.h and related headers down to those which are actually
implementing the corresponding subsystems, not just using them.

when strchr fails, and important piece of information already
computed, the string length, is thrown away. have strchrnul (with
namespace protection) be the underlying function so this information
can be kept, and let strchr be a wrapper for it. this also allows
strcspn to be considerably faster in the case where the match set has
a single element that's not matched.

this could actually cause rare crashes in the case where a short
string is located at the end of a page and the following page is not
readable, and in fact this was seen in gcc compiling certain files.

search for bytes with high bit set was giving (potentially dangerous)
wrong results. i've tested, cleaned up, and hopefully sped up this
function now.
