    elf: Use dl-symbol-redir-ifunc.h instead _dl_strlen
    
    Also replace the loop with strlen And remove
    -fno-tree-loop-distribute-patterns usage.
    
    It requires redirect the strlen to the baseline implementation
    for x86_64, aarch64, and loongarch64.
    
    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu{-v2,v3} and aarch64-linux-gnu with
    both gcc-15 and clang-21.
