Summary:  Make local symbols in .S files truely local

Original Submission:  Several assembler files in the avr-libc sources
have symbols that are meant to be local, but are being
exported into the symbol table anyway, for example:

.__do_copy_data_loop

This can confuse different debugging tools in different ways.
It's therefore best to only use truely local symbols in
assembler sources (either starting with ".L", or Unix-assembler
style numeric labels).

This is not an exhaustive list, but these are some files I've noticed that 
require local labels:

crt1/gcrt1.S
libc/pmstring/memcpy_P.S
libc/pmstring/strlen_P.S
libc/pmstring/strncmp_P.S
libc/string/memset.S
libc/string/strchr.S
libc/string/strcmp.S
libc/string/strlcpy.S
libc/string/strncmp.S
libc/string/strrev.S
libc/string/strnlen.S
