Fix locale memmem namespace (bug 17585).
Locale code, brought in by ISO C functions, calls memmem, which is not an ISO C function. This isn't an ISO C conformance bug, because all mem* names are reserved, but glibc practice is not to rely on that reservation (thus, memmem is only declared in string.h if __USE_GNU even though ISO C would allow it to be declared unconditionally, for example). This patch changes that code to use __memmem. Note: there are uses of memmem elsewhere in glibc that I didn't change, although it may turn out some of those also need to use __memmem. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared libraries is unchanged by this patch). [BZ #17585] * string/memmem.c [!_LIBC] (__memmem): Define to memmem. (memmem): Rename to __memmem and define as weak alias of __memmem. Use libc_hidden_weak. (__memmem): Use libc_hidden_def. * include/string.h (__memmem): Declare. Use libc_hidden_proto. * locale/findlocale.c (valid_locale_name): Use __memmem instead of memmem.
