diffcore-pickaxe: use memmem()

Use memmem() instead of open-coding it.  The system libraries usually have a
much faster version than the memcmp()-loop here.  Even our own fall-back in
compat/, which is used on Windows, is slightly faster.

The following commands were run in a Linux kernel repository and timed, the
best of five results is shown:

  $ STRING='Ensure that the real time constraints are schedulable.'
  $ git log -S"$STRING" HEAD -- kernel/sched.c >/dev/null
