Fix strstr bug with huge needles (bug 23637)
The generic strstr in GLIBC 2.28 fails to match huge needles. The optimized AVAILABLE macro reads ahead a large fixed amount to reduce the overhead of repeatedly checking for the end of the string. However if the needle length is larger than this, two_way_long_needle may confuse this as meaning the end of the string and return NULL. This is fixed by adding the needle length to the amount to read ahead. [BZ #23637] * string/test-strstr.c (pr23637): New function. (test_main): Add tests with longer needles. * string/strcasestr.c (AVAILABLE): Fix readahead distance. * string/strstr.c (AVAILABLE): Likewise.
