Add a new `compare_bytes` intrinsic instead of calling `memcmp` directly As discussed in #113435, this lets the backends be the place that can have the "don't call the function if n == 0" logic, if it's needed for the target. (I didn't actually *add* those checks, though, since as I understood it we didn't actually need them on known targets?) Doing this also let me make it `const` (unstable), which I don't think `extern "C" fn memcmp` can be. cc `@RalfJung` `@Amanieu` |

The codegen
crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR,
and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code
that runs towards the end of the compilation process.
For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
