Add a new sysfs_streq() string comparison function

Add a new sysfs_streq() string comparison function, which ignores
the trailing newlines found in sysfs inputs.  By example:

	sysfs_streq("a", "b")	==> false
	sysfs_streq("a", "a")	==> true
	sysfs_streq("a", "a\n")	==> true
	sysfs_streq("a\n", "a")	==> true

This is intended to simplify parsing of sysfs inputs, letting them
avoid the need to manually strip off newlines from inputs.
