memrchr: Correct aligned offset computation The memrchr fallback did not compute the offset correctly. It was intentioned to land on usize-aligned addresses but did not. This was suspected to have resulted in a crash on ARMv7! This bug affected non-linux platforms. I think like this, if we have a slice with pointer `ptr` and length `len`, we want to find the last usize-aligned offset in the slice. The correct computation should be: For example if ptr = 1 and len = 6, and `size_of::<usize>()` is 4: ``` [ x x x x x x ] 1 2 3 4 5 6 ^-- last aligned address at offset 3 from the start. ``` The last aligned address is ptr + len - (ptr + len) % usize_size. Compute offset from the start as: offset = len - (ptr + len) % usize_size = 6 - (1 + 6) % 4 = 6 - 3 = 3. I believe the function's return value was always correct previously, if the platform supported unaligned addresses. Fixes #35967
