Michael Hudson-Doyle 168a51b3a1 runtime: adjust the arm64 memmove and memclr to operate by word as much as they can
Not only is this an obvious optimization:

but it turns out that it's necessary to avoid the GC seeing partially written
pointers.

It's of course possible to be more sophisticated (using ldp/stp to move 16
bytes at a time in the core loop and unrolling the tail copying loops being
the obvious ideas) but I wanted something simple and (reasonably) obviously
correct.

Fixes #12552

The Go Programming Language

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.

Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
