x86/boot: Rename overlapping memcpy() to memmove()
Instead of having non-standard memcpy() behavior, explicitly call the new function memmove(), make it available to the decompressors, and switch the two overlap cases (screen scrolling and ELF parsing) to use memmove(). Additionally documents the purpose of compressed/string.c.
