René Scharfe 578398071e add MOVE_ARRAY
Similar to COPY_ARRAY (introduced in 60566cbb58), add a safe and
convenient helper for moving potentially overlapping ranges of array
entries.  It infers the element size, multiplies automatically and
safely to get the size in bytes, does a basic type safety check by
comparing element sizes and unlike memmove(3) it supports NULL
pointers iff 0 elements are to be moved.

Also add a semantic patch to demonstrate the helper's intended usage.
