[PATCH v3 2/7] x86: Fix __wcsncmp_evex in strcmp-evex.S [BZ# 28755]

Fixes [BZ# 28755] for wcsncmp by redirecting length >= 2^56 to
__wcscmp_evex. For x86_64 this covers the entire address range so any
length larger could not possibly be used to bound `s1` or `s2`.

test-strcmp, test-strncmp, test-wcscmp, and test-wcsncmp all pass.
