[PATCH] string: Use __restrict__ according to ISO/IEC 9899:TC3

[Guilhem Massol]

Source: https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1256.pdf
Some functions in lib/string.c needs to use restrict according to sections:
* 7.21.2.1: memcpy
* 7.21.2.3: strcpy
* 7.21.2.4: strncpy
* 7.21.3.1: strcat
* 7.21.3.2: strncat
