libpayload: Reorder default memcpy, speed up memset and memcmp
The current default memcpy first copies single bytes to align the amount, then copies the rest as full words. In practice, the start of a buffer is much more likely to be word-aligned then the end, and aligned word access are usually more efficient. This patch reorders those accesses to first copy as many full words as possible and then finish the rest with byte accesses to optimize this common case. This fixes a data abort when using USB on ARM without CONFIG_GPL. Due to some limitations of how DMA memory is set up in coreboot on ARM, it currently does not support unaligned accesses. (This could be fixed with a more complicated patch, but it's usually not an issue... unless, of course, your memcpy happens to be braindead). Also add word-aligned accesses to memset and memcmp while I'm at it, and make memcmp's return value standard's compliant.
