Emit memmove, not memcpy, for structure copies; this is unfortunately
required for correctness in cases of copying a struct to itself or to an overlapping struct (itself for cases like *a = *a, and overlapping is possible with unions). Hopefully, this won't end up being a perf issue; LLVM *should* be able to optimize memmove to memcpy in a lot of cases, and for small copies the generated code *should* be mostly comparable. (In reality, LLVM is currently horrible at optimizing memmove, but that's a bug, not a fundamental issue.) gcc currently generates wrong code; that's http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32667. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@51566 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
