perf tools build in recent kernels spews splat when cross compiling with uClibc:
| CC util/alias.o
| In file included from tools/perf/util/../ui/../util/cache.h:8:0,
| from tools/perf/util/../ui/helpline.h:7,
| from tools/perf/util/debug.h:8,
| from arch/../util/cpumap.h:9,
| from arch/../util/env.h:5,
| from arch/common.h:4,
| from arch/common.c:3:
| tools/include/linux/string.h:12:15: warning: redundant redeclaration of ‘strlcpy’ [-Wredundant-decls]
| extern size_t strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size);
^
This is after commit 61a6445e46 ("tools lib: Guard the strlcpy() header with
__GLIBC__").
The problem is uClibc also defines __GLIBC__ for exported headers for
applications. So add that specific check to not trip for uClibc.

Better to whitelist it for libraries that require it (glibc) than
blacklist it with the ones that don't (uclibc, musl libc, etc).

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.
But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.
So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

strlcpy() will be needed by the subcmd library. Move it to the shared
tools/lib/string.c file which can be used by other tools.

Copying it to tools/lib/string.c, the counterpart to the kernel's
lib/string.c.
This is preparation for enhancing BPF program configuration, which will
allow config string like 'inlines=yes'.

That will contain more string functions with counterparts, sometimes
verbatim copies, in the kernel.
