[PATCH 11/20] alpha: add assembly mempcpy sharing the ev6 memcpy

[Matt Turner]

Alpha had no assembly mempcpy and used the generic C.  mempcpy differs from
memcpy only in its return value (dest + n rather than dest), so build it from
the ev6 memcpy with USE_AS_MEMPCPY, following the established convention used
by other architectures.

memcpy.S gains two small, behaviour-preserving changes so it can be reused:
the entry computes the return value through USE_AS_MEMPCPY, and the misaligned
path now derives its working dest pointer and alignment from the (still
original) $16 instead of $0, freeing $0 to carry dest + n for mempcpy.  The
plain memcpy path is unchanged ($0 == $16 on entry).
