[PATCH] string: simplify stricmp() and strnstr()

["André Goddard Rosa" <andre.goddard@gmail.com>]

Refactor the code and removes an unneeded variable.

It removes 32 bytes on my core2 with gcc 4.4.1:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   3196       0       0    3196     c7c lib/string-BEFORE.o
   3164       0       0    3164     c5c lib/string-AFTER.o
