tools/memory-model: Add litmus test for full multicopy atomicity
This commit adds a litmus test suggested by Alan Stern that is forbidden on fully multicopy atomic systems, but allowed on other-multicopy and on non-multicopy atomic systems. For reference, s390 is fully multicopy atomic, x86 and ARMv8 are other-multicopy atomic, and ARMv7 and powerpc are non-multicopy atomic.
