Siva Chandra Reddy 7cd420649f [libc][NFC] Use a end of list marker for cpu feature detection.
Without this, the array can end up being an empty array leading to
compiler failures.

Guillaume Chatelet 04a309dd0b [libc] Adding memcpy implementation for x86_64
Summary:
The patch is not ready yet and is here to discuss a few options:
 - How do we customize the implementation? (i.e. how to define `kRepMovsBSize`),
 - How do we specify custom compilation flags? (We'd need `-fno-builtin-memcpy` to be passed in),
 - How do we build? We may want to test in debug but build the libc with `-march=native` for instance,
 - Clang has a brand new builtin `__builtin_memcpy_inline` which makes the implementation easy and efficient, but:
   - If we compile with `gcc` or `msvc` we can't use it, resorting on less efficient code generation,
   - With gcc we can use `__builtin_memcpy` but then we'd need a postprocess step to check that the final assembly do not contain call to `memcpy` (unlikely but allowed),
   - For msvc we'd need to resort on the compiler optimization passes.

Guillaume Chatelet 1aab055dd8 [libc] Add CMake script to check host cpu features
Summary:
Tested on MacOSX and Linux.
For robustness we can go the OpenCV way and add individual c++ files with intrinsics.
