runtime: improve memmove performance ppc64,ppc64le

This change improves the performance of memmove
on ppc64 & ppc64le mainly for moves >=32 bytes.
In addition, the test to detect backward moves
 was enhanced to avoid backward moves if source
and dest were in different types of storage, since
backward moves might not always be efficient.

Fixes #14507

The following shows some of the improvements from the test
in the runtime package:
