runtime: improve memmove for ppc64x

This improves performance of memmove for larger moves by
unrolling the main loop from 32 byte to 64 byte moves.

The improvement of the relevant sizes on a power9:

Memmove/64      5.11ns ± 0%    5.00ns ± 0%   -2.21%
Memmove/128     8.26ns ± 0%    5.88ns ± 0%  -28.83%
Memmove/256     12.7ns ± 0%     8.6ns ± 0%  -31.94%
Memmove/512     17.9ns ± 0%    14.3ns ± 0%  -19.87%
Memmove/1024    33.3ns ± 0%    27.0ns ± 0%  -18.92%
Memmove/2048    72.1ns ± 0%    51.8ns ± 0%  -28.25%
Memmove/4096     126ns ± 0%     110ns ± 0%  -12.63%
