Add new API to copy managed memory.
* gc.c: Add mono_gc_bzero and mono_gc_memmove. Those
functions do word sized load/stores so they are GC safe.
Those oddly seeing functions are required as libc equivalents
don't ensure that copies and done at least in word granularity
so we can end up pausing a thread while is has, for example,
zeroed just the first byte of a managed reference, causing the
GC to see an invalid pointer.
This happens on OSX but can potentially happen on other systems.
