tools/nolibc/string: use unidirectional variants for memcpy()
Till now memcpy() relies on memmove(), but it's always included for libgcc, so we have a larger than needed function. Let's implement two unidirectional variants to copy from bottom to top and from top to bottom, and use the former for memcpy(). The variants are optimized to be compact, and at the same time the compiler is sometimes able to detect the loop and to replace it with a "rep movsb". The new function is 24 bytes instead of 52 on x86_64. Signed-off-by:Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by:
