X86-64: Remove previous default/SSE2/AVX2 memcpy/memmove
Since the new SSE2/AVX2 memcpy/memmove are faster than the previous ones,
we can remove the previous SSE2/AVX2 memcpy/memmove and replace them with
the new ones.
No change in IFUNC selection if SSE2 and AVX2 memcpy/memmove weren't used
before. If SSE2 or AVX2 memcpy/memmove were used, the new SSE2 or AVX2
memcpy/memmove optimized with Enhanced REP MOVSB will be used for
processors with ERMS. The new AVX512 memcpy/memmove will be used for
processors with AVX512 which prefer vzeroupper.
Since the new SSE2 memcpy/memmove are faster than the previous default
memcpy/memmove used in libc.a and ld.so, we also remove the previous
default memcpy/memmove and make them the default memcpy/memmove, except
that non-temporal store isn't used in ld.so.
Together, it reduces the size of libc.so by about 6 KB and the size of
ld.so by about 2 KB.
