    <string.h>: Define __CORRECT_ISO_CPP_STRING_H_PROTO for Clang [BZ #25232]
    
    Without the asm redirects, strchr et al. are not const-correct.
    
    libc++ has a wrapper header that works with and without
    __CORRECT_ISO_CPP_STRING_H_PROTO (using a Clang extension).  But when
    Clang is used with libstdc++ or just C headers, the overloaded functions
    with the correct types are not declared.
    
    This change does not impact current GCC (with libstdc++ or libc++).
    
    (cherry picked from commit 953ceff17a4a15b10cfdd5edc3c8cae4884c8ec3)
