Reimplement another handy convenience function from glibc. memrchr()

binary-safe.
The whole-directory rename detection patch could use this to find the
last directory separator in a (possibly truncated) pathname.
Are you sure this would work on Windows where both '/' and '\' are
valid directory separators?
