Removed the unsafe nxt_memcmp() wrapper for memcmp(3).

The casts are unnecessary, since memcmp(3)'s arguments are 'void *'.
It might have been necessary in the times of K&R, where 'void *' didn't
exist.  Nowadays, it's unnecessary, and _very_ unsafe, since casts can
hide all classes of bugs by silencing most compiler warnings.

The changes from nxt_memcmp() to memcmp(3) were scripted:

$ find src/ -type f \
  | grep '\.[ch]$' \
  | xargs sed -i 's/nxt_memcmp/memcmp/'
