Rollup merge of #134606 - RalfJung:ptr-copy-docs, r=Mark-Simulacrum
ptr::copy: fix docs for the overlapping case

Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/549

As discussed in that issue, it doesn't make any sense for `copy` to read a byte via `src` after it was already written via `dst`. The entire point of this method is that is copies correctly even if they overlap, and that requires always reading any given location before writing it.
