jeanPerier 1ddf18057a [flang] introduce fir.copy to avoid load store of aggregates (#130289) ...

Introduce a FIR operation to do memcopy/memmove of compile time constant size types.

This is to avoid requiring derived type copies to done with load/store
which is badly supported in LLVM when the aggregate type is "big" (no
threshold can easily be defined here, better to always avoid them for
fir.type).

This was the root cause of the regressions caused by #114002 which introduced a
load/store of fir.type<> which caused hand/asserts to fire in LLVM on
several benchmarks.
