unsigned char promotes to int, which can overflow when shifted left by
24 bits or more. this has been reported multiple times but then
forgotten. it's expected to be benign UB, but can trap when built with
explicit overflow catching (ubsan or similar). fix it now.
note that promotion to uint32_t is safe and portable even outside of
the assumptions usually made in musl, since either uint32_t has rank
at least unsigned int, so that no further default promotions happen,
or int is wide enough that the shift can't overflow. this is a
desirable property to have in case someone wants to reuse the code
elsewhere.

first, the condition (mem && k < p) is redundant, because mem being
nonzero implies the needle is periodic with period exactly p, in which
case any byte that appears in the needle must appear in the last p
bytes of the needle, bounding the shift (k) by p.
second, the whole point of replacing the shift k by mem (=l-p) is to
prevent shifting by less than mem when discarding the memory on shift,
in which case linear time could not be guaranteed. but as written, the
check also replaced shifts greater than mem by mem, reducing the
benefit of the shift. there is no possible benefit to this reduction of
the shift; since mem is being cleared, the full shift is valid and
more optimal. so only replace the shift by mem when it would be less
than mem.

We have adopted these and don't consider them 'contrib' code, so bring
them closer to style(9). This is a followon to r315467 and r351700.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
It is O(n) in the length of the haystack (big) string, and has special
cases for short needle (little) strings, of one to four bytes, to avoid
excessive overhead.
There are a small set of nearly trivial cases where the startup overhead
of the musl implementation makes it slightly slower -- for example, a 31
byte needle that matches the beginning of the haystack. It's faster for
non-trivial cases, and significantly so for inputs that trigger worst-
case behaviour of the previous implementation. As an example, in my
tests a 16K needle that matches the end of a 64K haystack is nearly
2000x faster with this implementation.

This function originated in glibc, and this matches their behaviour
(and NetBSD, OpenBSD, and musl).
An empty big string (arg "l") is handled by the existing
l_len < s_len test.
