Find it at the bottom, I had to do a prep patch to move memdup() first,
so that I could move tools/perf/util/include/linux/string.h to
tools/include/linux/string.h, there is still work to do to fully move
tools/perf/util/string.c to tools/lib/, will do eventually, for now what
you need is there.

    tools: Clone the kernel's strtobool function
    
    Copying it to tools/lib/string.c, the counterpart to the kernel's
    lib/string.c.
    
    This is preparation for enhancing BPF program configuration, which will
    allow config string like 'inlines=yes'.
