POSIX strncasecmp(), strdup(), and strtok_r() have different names

Add wrappers as inline functions, because they're used from librte_kvargs,
and thus cannot be in librte_eal; besides, implementation is trivial.

Allocating memory using rte_strdup() I'd use rte_free()
to release it. I guess it will fail badly.
So, I think that a different, more specific prefix is
required for POSIX wrappers.
