    string: Speed up strcasecmp test data initialization
    
    The strcasecmp and strncasecmp tests repeatedly initialize large
    buffers for many combinations of lengths and alignments.  The existing
    loops perform a remainder operation and call toupper and tolower for
    every element.
    
    Generate at most max_char elements using an additive recurrence and
    apply the case conversions while creating this initial pattern.  The
    recurrence produces the same sequence as the existing multiplication
    and remainder expression.  Expand the completed pattern using bulk
    copies.
    
    This preserves the generated test data and locale-dependent case
    conversion while substantially reducing the initialization cost on
    slower systems.
