runtime: amd64, use 4-byte ops for memmove of 4 bytes

memmove used to use 2 2-byte load/store pairs to move 4 bytes.
When the result is loaded with a single 4-byte load, it caused
a store to load fowarding stall.  To avoid the stall,
special case memmove to use 4 byte ops for the 4 byte copy case.

We already have a special case for 8-byte copies.
386 already specializes 4-byte copies.
I'll do 2-byte copies also, but not for 1.8.

3-byte copies get a bit slower.  Other copies are unchanged.

Fixes #18740
