Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/4] tools/nolibc: x86-64: Use `rep movsb` for `memcpy()` and `memmove()`

Simplify memcpy() and memmove() on the x86-64 arch.

The x86-64 arch has a 'rep movsb' instruction, which can perform
memcpy() using only a single instruction, given:

    %rdi = destination
    %rsi = source
    %rcx = length

Additionally, it can also handle the overlapping case by setting DF=1
(backward copy), which can be used as the memmove() implementation.

Before this patch:
```
  00000000000010ab <memmove>:
    10ab: 48 89 f8              mov    %rdi,%rax

    10d9: 48 01 cf              add    %rcx,%rdi
    10dc: 48 ff ca              dec    %rdx
    10df: 75 f0                 jne    10d1 <memmove+0x26>
    10e1: c3                    ret

  00000000000010e2 <memcpy>:
    10e2: 48 89 f8              mov    %rdi,%rax
    10e5: 48 85 d2              test   %rdx,%rdx
    10e8: 74 12                 je     10fc <memcpy+0x1a>
    10ea: 31 c9                 xor    %ecx,%ecx
    10ec: 40 8a 3c 0e           mov    (%rsi,%rcx,1),%dil
    10f0: 40 88 3c 08           mov    %dil,(%rax,%rcx,1)
    10f4: 48 ff c1              inc    %rcx
    10f7: 48 39 ca              cmp    %rcx,%rdx
    10fa: 75 f0                 jne    10ec <memcpy+0xa>
    10fc: c3                    ret
```
