Rollup merge of #69391 - memoryruins:memalias, r=Mark-Simulacrum
Add rustdoc aliases to `ptr::copy` and `ptr::copy_nonoverlapping` This PR adds a [rustdoc alias](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustdoc/unstable-features.html#add-aliases-for-an-item-in-documentation-search) to `ptr::copy` and `ptr::copy_nonoverlapping` using the commonly used terms `memcpy` and `memmove`. The motivation for this PR is to improve discoverability for these functions, since I've noticed users overlook these functions on multiple occasions (and they have thus reached for [libc](https://crates.io/crates/libc) without need). Currently std docs state: https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/ptr/fn.copy_nonoverlapping.html > `copy_nonoverlapping` is semantically equivalent to C's `memcpy`, but with the argument order swapped. https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/ptr/fn.copy.html > `copy` is semantically equivalent to C's `memmove`, but with the argument order swapped. #### search results before adding a rustdoc alias:   #### after adding `#[doc(alias = "memcpy")]` and `#[doc(alias = "memmove")]`:
