a6b7502ec0 x86: Optimize memmove-vec-unaligned-erms.S
No bug.

The optimizations are as follows:

1) Always align entry to 64 bytes. This makes behavior more
   predictable and makes other frontend optimizations easier.

2) Make the L(more_8x_vec) cases 4k aliasing aware. This can have
   significant benefits in the case that:
        0 < (dst - src) < [256, 512]

3) Align before `rep movsb`. For ERMS this is roughly a [0, 30%]
   improvement and for FSRM [-10%, 25%].

In addition to these primary changes there is general cleanup
throughout to optimize the aligning routines and control flow logic.

63ad43566f x86-64: Add memmove family functions with 256-bit EVEX
Update ifunc-memmove.h to select the function optimized with 256-bit EVEX
instructions using YMM16-YMM31 registers to avoid RTM abort with usable
AVX512VL since VZEROUPPER isn't needed at function exit.
