/* The strategy of the memory functions is:
1. Copy bytes until the destination pointer is aligned.
2. Copy words in unrolled loops. If the source and destination
are not aligned in the same way, use word memory operations,
but shift and merge two read words before writing.
3. Copy the few remaining bytes.
This is fast on processors that have at least 10 registers for
allocation by GCC, and that can access memory at reg+const in one
instruction.
I made an "exhaustive" test of this memmove when I wrote it,
exhaustive in the sense that I tried all alignment and length
combinations, with and without overlap. */
