Subject: [PATCH 1/1] strings: new command

Implement a simple version of strings that will print
printable strings from one or more files.
Strings shall be at least 4 chars before thay are printed

Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

I was in a situation where I missed "strings".
So here it is....
I started out with cat.c - but ended up re-writing everything.

It has seen light testing on my x86 box.
Ran it through checkpatch for good measure - fixed a few things.

The location in Makefile seems random, so I just put it next to cat.

Before applying please consider if strings is really
general useful in barebox.
