After exploring different prefetch distance-degree combinations
in this new update of the memcpy function, a new loop has been added
for moving many cache lines with an aggressive prefetching schema.
Prefetch has been removed when move few cache line aligned blocks.
As final result, this memcpy gives us the same performances for small
sizes (we already had!) and better numbers for big copies.
In case of SH4-300 CPU Series, benchmarks show a gain of ~20% for sizes
from 4KiB to 256KiB.
In case of the SH4-200, there is a gain of ~40% for sizes bigger than
32KiB.

With this patch the movca.l instruction is used within the memset.
The current memset implementation only uses the FPU and there is
an real gain for all the sizes.
Adding the movca.l instruction numbers always are better than the generic code.
There is a big gain for size greater than 64 KiB but number are worst for 4-32KiB
sizes compared with the implementation without movca.l.

This patch disables SH-4 optimizations that rely on the FPU when
building for variants that don't have an FPU, such as SH-4AL.

This optimization is based on prefetching and 64bit data transfer via FPU
(only for the little endianess)
Tests shows that:
----------------------------------------
Memory bandwidth | Gain
| sh4-300 | sh4-200
----------------------------------------
512 bytes to 16KiB | ~20% | ~25%
from 32KiB to 16MiB | ~190% | ~5%
