Memset and memmove are recognized LLVM builtins and should be generated as such, since LLVM can run store->load forwarding on small calls of known size. Furthermore, for arrays LLVM builtin memset instructions do not cause escapes, but direct calls to memset in the IR will escape.
Initially this PR only supported memset, but now supports memmove as well.
