[PATCH v3 09/15] riscv: add vectorized strncpy

The vector implementation copies the source in vector-length chunks using
fault-only-first loads (vle8ff.v); vl is capped by the remaining count so
the source is never read past byte n or across an unmapped page, and the
tail after a NUL is zero-filled with wide m8 stores.  This provides
significant performance improvements on RVV-capable hardware.  Use
conditional compilation to fall back to the generic implementation when
__riscv_vector is not available, maintaining compatibility with non-vector
RISC-V systems.
