powerpc: Optimized strcpy for POWER9
This version uses VSX store vector with length instructions and is significantly faster on small strings and relatively unaligned large strings, compared to the POWER8 version. A few examples: __strcpy_power9 __strcpy_power8 Length 16, alignments in bytes 0/ 0: 2.52454 4.62695 Length 412, alignments in bytes 4/ 0: 11.6 22.9185
