LoongArch: Optimize memory ops (memset/memcpy/memmove)

To optimize memset()/memcpy()/memmove() and so on, we use a jump table
to dispatch cases for short data lengths; and for long data lengths, we
split the destination into head part (first 8 bytes), tail part (last 8
bytes) and middle part. The head part and tail part may be at unaligned
addresses, while the middle part is always aligned (the middle part is
allowed to overlap the head/tail part). In this way, the first and last
8 bytes may be unaligned accesses, but we can make sure the data in the
middle is processed at an aligned destination address.

We have tested micro-bench[1] on a Loongson-3C5000 16-core machine (2.2GHz):
