/*
* Portable strlen() for 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
*
* Rationale: it is generally much more efficient to do word length
* operations and avoid branches on modern computer systems, as
* compared to byte-length operations with a lot of branches.
*
* The expression:
*
* ((x - 0x01....01) & ~x & 0x80....80)
*
* would evaluate to a non-zero value iff any of the bytes in the
* original word is zero. However, we can further reduce ~1/3 of
* time if we consider that strlen() usually operate on 7-bit ASCII
* by employing the following expression, which allows false positive
* when high bit of 1 and use the tail case to catch these case:
*
* ((x - 0x01....01) & 0x80....80)
*
* This is more than 5.2 times as fast as the raw implementation on
* Intel T7300 under long mode for strings longer than word length.
