lldp: simplify compare_func, using ?: to chain comparisons

The ?: operator is very useful for chaining comparison functions
(strcmp, memcmp, CMP), since its behavior is to return the result
of the comparison function call if non-zero, or continue evaluating
the chain of comparison functions.

This simplifies the code in that using a temporary `r` variable
to store the function results is no longer necessary and the checks
for non-zero to return are no longer needed either, resulting in a
typical three-fold reduction to the number of lines in the code.

Introduce a new memcmp_nn() to compare two memory buffers in
lexicographic order, taking length in consideration.

Tested: $ ninja -C build/ test

All test cases pass. In particular, test_multiple_neighbors_sorted()
in test-lldp would catch regressions introduced by this commit.
