The memcpy() KUnit tests are trying to sanity-check run-time behaviors,
but tripped compile-time warnings about a pathological condition of a
too-small buffer being used for input. Avoid this by explicitly resizing
the buffer, but leaving the string short. Avoid the following warning:
lib/memcpy_kunit.c: In function 'strtomem_test':
include/linux/string.h:303:42: warning: 'strnlen' specified bound 4 exceeds source size 3 [-Wstringop-overread]

One of the "legitimate" uses of strncpy() is copying a NUL-terminated
string into a fixed-size non-NUL-terminated character array. To avoid
the weaknesses and ambiguity of intent when using strncpy(), provide
replacement functions that explicitly distinguish between trailing
padding and not, and require the destination buffer size be discoverable
by the compiler.
For example:
struct obj {
int foo;
char small[4] __nonstring;
char big[8] __nonstring;
int bar;
};
struct obj p;
/* This will truncate to 4 chars with no trailing NUL */
strncpy(p.small, "hello", sizeof(p.small));
/* p.small contains 'h', 'e', 'l', 'l' */
/* This will NUL pad to 8 chars. */
strncpy(p.big, "hello", sizeof(p.big));
/* p.big contains 'h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '\0', '\0', '\0' */
When the "__nonstring" attributes are missing, the intent of the
programmer becomes ambiguous for whether the lack of a trailing NUL
in the p.small copy is a bug. Additionally, it's not clear whether
the trailing padding in the p.big copy is _needed_. Both cases
become unambiguous with:
strtomem(p.small, "hello");
strtomem_pad(p.big, "hello", 0);

Expand the memcpy KUnit tests to include these functions.

A common idiom in kernel code is to wipe the contents of a structure
starting from a given member. These open-coded cases are usually difficult
to read and very sensitive to struct layout changes. Like memset_after(),
introduce a new helper, memset_startat() that takes the target struct
instance, the byte to write, and the member name where zeroing should
start.
Note that this doesn't zero padding preceding the target member. For
those cases, memset_after() should be used on the preceding member.

Before changing anything about memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), add
run-time tests to check basic behaviors for any regressions.
