Hou Tao 9c42652f8b selftests/bpf: Add benchmark for bpf_strncmp() helper
Add benchmark to compare the performance between home-made strncmp()
in bpf program and bpf_strncmp() helper. In summary, the performance
win of bpf_strncmp() under x86-64 is greater than 18% when the compared
string length is greater than 64, and is 179% when the length is 4095.
Under arm64 the performance win is even bigger: 33% when the length
is greater than 64 and 600% when the length is 4095.

The following is the details:

no-helper-X: use home-made strncmp() to compare X-sized string
helper-Y: use bpf_strncmp() to compare Y-sized string
