cd3aae9b81 test/codegen: port all small memmove tests to codegen
This change ports all the remaining tests checking that small memmoves
are replaced with MOVs to the new codegen test harness, and deletes
them from the asm_test file.

c028958393 test/codegen: fix issue with arm64 memmove codegen test
This recently added arm64 memmove codegen check:

  func movesmall() {
    // arm64:-"memmove"
    x := [...]byte{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
    copy(x[1:], x[:])
  }

is not correct, for two reasons:

1. regexps are matched from the start of the disasm line (excluding
   line information). This mean that a negative -"memmove" check will
   pass against a 'CALL runtime.memmove' line because the line does
   not start with 'memmove' (its starts with CALL...).
   The way to specify no 'memmove' match whatsoever on the line is
   -".*memmove"

2. AFAIK comments on their own line are matched against the first
   subsequent non-comment line. So the code above only verifies that
   the x := ... line does not generate a memmove. The comment should
   be moved near the copy() line, if it's that one we want to not
   generate a memmove call.

The fact that the test above is not effective can be checked by
running `go run run.go -v codegen` in the toplevel test directory with
a go1.10 toolchain (that does not have the memmove-elision
optimization). The test will still pass (it shouldn't).

This change changes the regexp to -".*memmove" and moves it near the
line it needs to (not)match.
