benchtests: Memory walking benchmark for memcpy
This benchmark is an attempt to eliminate cache effects from string benchmarks. The benchmark walks both ways through a large memory area and copies different sizes of memory and alignments one at a time instead of looping around in the same memory area. This is a good metric to have alongside the other memcpy benchmarks, especially for larger sizes where the likelihood of the call being done only once is pretty high. * benchtests/bench-memcpy-walk.c: New file. * benchtests/Makefile (string-benchset): Add it.
