[PATCH 9/9] RISC-V: Use Zicboz in memset when available

RISC-V has an optimized memset() which does byte by byte writes up to
the first sizeof(long) aligned address, then uses Duff's device until
the last sizeof(long) aligned address, and finally byte by byte to
the end. When memset is used to zero memory and the Zicboz extension
is available, then we can extend that by doing the optimized memset
up to the first Zicboz block size aligned address, then use the
Zicboz zero instruction for each block to the last block size aligned
address, and finally the optimized memset to the end.
