[PATCH] Use starts_with() for C strings instead of memcmp()

["René Scharfe" <l.s.r@web.de>]

Convert three cases of checking for a constant prefix using memcmp() to
starts_with().  This way there is no need for magic string length
constants and we avoid running over the end of the string should it be
shorter than the prefix.

These are the easy cases I found; there are several more comparisons
of strings to constants using memcmp().  Some could benefit from
skip_prefix(), others may need a bit more thought, and perhaps I
missed a few.
