types: improve comparison reliability of binary strings
The existing `ucv_compare()` implementation utilized `strcmp()` to compare
two ucode string values, which may lead to incorrect results for strings
containing null bytes as the comparison prematurely aborts when encountering
the first null.
Rework the string comparison logic to use `memcmp()` for comparing both ucv
strings with each other in order to ensure that expressions such as
`"" == "\u0000"` lead to the expected `false` result.
